Growing apples was his life. He left us a few days before harvest, like mature

I have no idea about the effect of copper content in soil on FB management.
That’s a new one for me. I tried to look it up, but couldn’t find anything.
For FB, removing “any” stress is not a silver bullet though. As mentioned in
previous posts, some water stress can save your trees when FB

Hi!
it would be interesting to define “cool” in the southern California context. ;-)
Temperature in the mid-90 (35 ℃ for the rest of the planet) (or more) clearly
isn’t favorable for blight. Flowers age faster at that temperature, while the
bacteria is slowed down.
Plus, if the trees are under
Hi!
Once a flower opens, it needs to get contaminated by an insect and then the
population needs to multiply to 100,000 before wetting, otherwise the infection
is a dud.
That takes 36 hrs when the conditions are perfect for the bacteria (28°C,
82°F), and considerably longer when the temperatur

Trapman and myself developed RIMpro-Erwinia to help manage which flowers are at
risk and at need for a spray. This model is very different from Cougar and
Maryblyt and is proving more reliable.

Ok, more seriously: Serenade does have some efficacy against FB and a number of
diseases. But I really wonder on the return on money spent on it compared to
anything else we spray. Maybe I'm wrong.
