Tree pruning time

This week I have pruned the apple and pear trees to keep them producing lots of fruit. This is year two for the trees so I have pruned each branch by a third of the new growth to encourage more side shoots which will produce the fruit next year.
The tomatoes germinated but don't look like they are going to survive. I think I took them out of the propagator too early. Next time I will leave them in until the first leaves are more established. The cucumber and pepper pants are doing fine though. We have fair new apple trees delivered yesterday so they will go in this weekend.
