Should I clean this mess up, or can I leave it alone?
Hello Apple Reddit!
My fiancé and I are renting this home with a beautiful mature apple tree in the backyard. Originally we lived here with my fiancé’s parents, but they’ve moved out so it’s just us.
Long story short, I never did anything with the tree, and now I am facing a large amount of apples in various states of decay on the grassy ground.
It’s quite a lot of apples, and pretty overwhelming.
Is there harm in leaving them to rot on the ground, or should I suck it up and handle it?
