Hi Dave! Always a pleasure to read you! I always learn something new!
1. Blossom Protect is ridiculously expensive compared to strep.
Of course, I agree. But since we pay a ridiculous amount for strep in Canada,
BP is almost affordable. We should really start a business = I send Canadian
of trials give results “at par” with
strep, I don’t see how we can argue that ‘more bacteria survive’

bacterial population in those flowers is very limited. Of course, a
few sprays may be needed to cover flowers as they open. As Dave said = possibly
to or 3… But 6 ?

Hello all, on the topic of Apogee and shoot blight control: Does anyone know if
the use of Apogee in previous years causes a “long term” reduction in FB
susceptibility?
The rationale is this:
1) Apogee thickens cells, which slows FB.
2) FB naturally progresses more slowly in older wood
In
is not useful if conditions favorable for FB are not
encountered during bloom.
But strep is a life saving investment when blossom blight conditions do occur!

as everybody knows the sickly sweet smell that FB has, Can a dog be
trained to alert on FB before its even apparent to us humans?
The whole point of predicting infection (via computers or otherwise) is to help
make appropriate spraying decisions, ahead of infection.

Hi Tim
Hi Dan!
The best we have so far is that it was so dry during bloom in most areas
that even though epiphytic populations of bacteria were tremendous, they
never got washed into flowers to cause infection. Another possibility is that
the extremely dry weather suppressed bacterial growth,
, or compost the fire blight cuttings.
I don’t think you need to worry about prunings. Really.

Hi Tim! nice to read you!
I think there are more sources of fire blight bacteria in the general
environment in the northeastern USA due to your woodlots and forests (with
feral apples and native hosts such as Hawthorne) as contrasted with the
treeless conditions around many eastern

any more pathogen infection. So why would periodic sprays be needed?

Hi!
Normal only in the context of Organic Production only! Part of the
phytotoxicity is avoided by using a much reduced rate in summer.
I meant to say it’s not a rescue treatment for anyone.
it’s either ’normal’ (organic) or completely forgotten (IPM).
I would also say that LLS is quickly

Hi!
I heard at the Hudson Valley RIMpro meeting last
month that bicarbonate is used in Europe during rainfall
That would seem to necessitate repeated applications during an infections
period. Does it have no after-infection value?
In replicated tests over the years, we saw value in using
for your advice. I am willing to forgo organic to save a
tree, so if there's any sort of systemic treatment that would be
possible, I would consider it. Serenade is a good preventative, but
it's too late for this tree.

In a nutshell: pathologists seldom agree on anything.

More seriously, 24 hrs was suggested by MacHardy based on different sources and
is a OK value.
