Will they grow in every year, or doI have to plow and plant again after I harvest?

but after I harvest the only options I have is to plow or cultivate? So next spring they will be able to harvest again?

You have to replant. They don't grow fruit again after you've harvested.

yes. they are permanent as strawberry. eventually it s your decision to destroy the apple orchard or strawberry and plant something else. but they are permanent as their description tells.

Well I've tried it with both apples and pears (which are both perrenial) and they didn't grow fruit back so it was either a bug or I'm correct.

they product fruits once a year.

Fair enough. Must have been a bug then as I left them for 2 whole seasons and no fruit appeared (after the initial harvest). I thought it was odd so thanks for confirming :)

They should do. Thing is with the apple trees, and possibly the pears and cherries, is the trees take about a year to grow, then they should, as long as they're cared for, provide a harvest once a year.

Farm Manager 2018 isn't like Pure Farming 2018 where things grow in 3 days or less and constantly cycle. If you're lucky most non-greenhouse and non-berry/grass plants will give you 2 harvests per year from a single field, and a lot of those require replants, the only ones that don't are trees, bushes, grass, tomatoes and peppers and of that stack, trees are single harvest per year, maybe double if you're really lucky depending on how they coded the fruit growth for the tree.

2 seasons is a little longer than 3 days. I left them for a long time. :P

Edit: I meant 2 years, not just single seasons so apologies if that caused any confusion.

Am having the same trouble I had one crop of apples and then nothing appears to be happening after. Hope its just a bug.

Watch your temperature. I had a bug where my temperature stayed at 2C for an entire year (I ended up exiting and reloading), and if it doesn't get warm enough, the trees won't wake up.

I think it might take years for an apple tree to become productive? But this is a game, so who knows.

My apples were productive the year after I planted them. Cherries, too. I never could get the damn pears to grow - but that was at the same time I got hit by the temp bug, and ended up bulldozing that orchard in frustration.
