Great sentence! It is correct.

Original: Bees pollinate flowers, so apple trees have juicy apples in summer.

Why this is okay:

  • There are two complete ideas: (1) bees pollinate flowers and (2) apple trees have juicy apples in summer. The word "so" connects these ideas and the comma before "so" is fine here.
  • "Pollinate" means bees move pollen from one flower to another so the flowers can make fruit.
  • "In summer" tells us when the apples are juicy.

Small improvements (optional):

  • Clearer: Because bees pollinate flowers, apple trees grow juicy apples in the summer.
  • Shorter: Bees pollinate flowers, so apple trees grow apples in summer.

Both your original and these versions are correct. Nice work!
