I planted 2 crab apple trees last year and have the first crop of fruit. They seem very small apples which I know they should be but they are very little. Should I harvest the tiny apples now?

Crab apples are naturally small and ripen about the same time as other apples, about October. If the seeds are brown the fruit is ripe and can be picked for making jelly.
