Why is there black gummy stuff on my peaches

How have the hardy kiwis been doing? I was worried about planting the two I ordered at this time, in mid September.

My MacFree from Stark Bros. got several fireblight strikes in it. Fortunately I guess the tree was big enough to not suffer too bad. It was next to Crimson Crisp, and I believe it was the Crimson Crisp that had the most problem. Also passing it along to Liberty another supposed blight resistant tree.

I have a Lovell that grew up from from an Apricot that the graft died on. Mine has about 8 trunks and is about 12'x12' after 7 or 8 years. I'm thinking yours are planted pretty close together and you may want to remove every other one eventually. The fruits on mine are large, at least baseball-sized, firm, and so-so in the flavor department for fresh eating. They are also extremely late compared to most other peaches, ripening in early-mid September here in SW Michigan, zone 5-compared to most of the "standard" peach varieties that ripen in July or early August. Like most peach trees they will overbear and break their branches off if not thinned to one fruit every 4-6". Watch out for the trunk borers, those have killed off most of my peach trees over the years. Thanks for the video, happy harvests!

Master in-law points my bro!🙏🙏🙏

Nicely done video! The jet pump on our well was destroyed by a 14 degree cold snap that knocked out our power for several days in Portland, Oregon. we will improve the insulation and place a light bulb in the well housing, but I'm not sure what I will use for a heat source when the power goes out again. I'm considering using an oil lamp, but I'm nervous about anything with a flame.

How is this tree doing now !?

how are the posts holding up now? if any updates. nice!!!!

What month is this?

Are you familiar with Michael Phillips? He came up with a holistic spray: liquid fish, kelp, effective microbes, neem and karanja oil. For curculio he recommends kaolin clay spray.

Is that pruning paint you’re using as sunblock? Are you sterilizing your cuts after you make them? If so what are you using to sterilize with?

Glad to see a new variety!

Gummosis the tree is diseased

Everything I’ve read says plant in spring. I’m in Ms & zone 9 do you think I can safely plant on my chain link fence in September? It does get down sometimes a few days in winter below 32* but mostly mild. It’s in 100’s now in Augudt

Thank you for the informative video. Have you had the sawmill and trailer out on the highway? How did it preform?

VERY impressive! How do the successful apples taste? Where in ny are you? I am in west orange nj Thank you!

Turn the 2x6 boards on edge and put them on the outside of the 4x4's......much stronger!

what kind of paint do you use?

Best and easiest yet. Thank you

I wonder how you went with that tree. Be great to see a picture of it if it did take.

Could the tape prevent the para film getting oxygen causing the breakdown in graft with tape holding it . Maybe different tape?

your trees look like shit ya need to prune better. i do like the macs better

Another great russeted apple is Colvis Spice. I will be looking for Hudson's Golden Gem.

From what I can tell you just harvested the berries that had the seeds right into the ground without taking them out of their casing or doing any drying. Is that correct? I'd hate to waste time going through all that if it's not necessary. And you did this in the fall/winter?

Can you just transplant the sucker without a grafting a branch on? If not, what are the reasons?

looks like you'll get 10 maybe 15 peaches from each tree?

👍👍👍

I think spraying would be easier than coming up with 500 socks for 1 tree

Socks or netting around each peach did not work for me. Bugs still got to the fruit and squirrels ruined them by chewing through it.

I’d love to buy a red leaf peach tree if you have a eBay store

As a professional arborist it was painful to watch you use a saw please get some safety gear and lessons in how to use a saw properly before you end up in an unfortunate accident

IMHO I don't think "over pruning" caused those issues. Most of the visible thinning cuts (@2:46) were too aggressive and poorly cut into the branch collars which resulted in die backs and deadly wounds. Bark splits were not from sun burn as they were at the underside of those branches; they were probably caused by load stress + die back and further abused by insects... Which were probably what the bunnies were after at the tree trunk. Also, that graft point (your "tree trunk") should never touch the ground. If I were in this situation and the tree hasn't died off already, I would: -Try to bring the graft point at least 1 - 2" above ground by digging dirt out from around that "trunk" area -"Properly" heading cut the problem branches to a node below the wound -Peel back the split barks to clean and evict any freeloaders; if a wound is grave enough, a heading cut may be required. -There's a technique called "bridge graft" which can help remedy these wounds including the trunk issue but I wouldn't attempt it if I have inadequate grafting xp and tree were too weak. -On a bright side, if the trunk cannot heal, the tree top will eventually die and the rootstock might get a chance to shine... ^_^ P.s. the pruning methodology demonstrated in this video was less than sound. A further study may be helpful. Cheers~

👍👍👍

Looks like water

What time of year do you tap a tree

I used wedding lace baggies and covered each fruit, but the squirrels ripped through them. I hate them so much. Also the japanese beetle traps work extremely well. You should set one or two up in May to get ready for them. Keeping the old lure in the bag helps attract more and weigh the bag before it gets filled.

How did your garvenstein do? Did it survive? How did it respond to the paint treatmemt?

it is totally normal to call them pine berries, but they are officially called white jewel strawberries. but those strawberries look like they are not ready because of their small size

We have fruit on thw peach tree and notice the issue , it there any way to treat it.

I got one plant this year. I hope I can get some fruits

What about the flavor compared to maple?

Yea I leave mine on until fully pink. They are so worth it. My fav. for sure.

Not sure she wanted any of them

DUDE Just discovered your channel. I moved to the Rockies at 8,500 FT elevation fully off grid having to haul in all of my own water.... The first day I broke ground I started planting shit. Grabbed all the wild medicinals and edibles from around the area and replant them on my property. Kept all of the wild berries on my land Saskatoon bushes chokecherry trees.... Planted 5 rootstock apple trees and a pear tree. Turns out I thought I was growing apple trees but apparently I either grabbed suckers or rootstock from an orchard and for the last 4 years I've been watering them and lugging water in here for them they've never flowered or produced apples and it's my understanding they would never have so this year I did honey crisp and honey crisp red Scion modified cleft graphs on all of them. I don't know if I put too much parafilm tape on them or if the buds will be able to pop through or not but I do see at least one is budding and it's been 2 weeks. This is a whole learning process for me but I started a food Forest early as early as I could. I just keep planting stuff in the ground every day! Learning more everyday 10 years up here fully off-grid a mile snowshoe back into the woods. I look forward to looking more into your channel it's how I built my house RUclips tutorials😂 Keep up the great work man thanks for the info! 😁✌️

Thanks I’ll use my chainsaw to cut me up 4x4 with the wood that I have.

Did they survive the winter? We had a pretty harsh winter in Kansas, none of our peaches or blackberries are going to bear fruit this year.

Will somebody please tell me how to keep my bees safe when trying these (organic) methods?

Man, have you considered the sun pounding on that chemical sock? Maybe consider that kaolin powder? Just trying to help.

Great video all around!

Maybe it’s a different variety? Omgoodness help? I can send photo..
