I was told aspirin mixed in water and spray trees and bushes for blight. You can pick up a large containers of aspirin at your feed store. It’s used/directed to animal issues, or you can crush normal aspirin to a powder.
Thanks for sharing my brother. I'm suggesting that we maybe establish why trees get diseases just like with humans. Maybe if we know the cause we can prevent it. Try have trees healthy with proper nutrition maybe it will help. Love your videos they help. Thanks
You're welcome. Your suggestion is correct in theory. We can do all possible to create a healthy environment for the trees and we should do that. However, since we live in a sinful world, the plants are also affected. We are listening to and studying God's book of nature for solutions to these issues.
I use 20% vinegar as a weed killer that works very well. So im very confused about spraying 40% vinigar diluted 3:1 (so 10% after dilution) on fruit tree leaves. I would think that would kill all the leaves immediately.
I spray the copper whenever the disease is present. I will spray every two weeks but not more than 4 times total. I do spray once in the spring as a preventative.
@@CountryLivingExperience Love the channel. So to a preventative say spray copper twice in spring and twice in fall. does that sound okay? Thank you for your input
Hey brother Ty for you video. I REALLY need you help with my peach trees . I had the brown spots come over all of my young peach tree leaves. The leaves fell off and new leaves are growing . Some of the new leaves have a little spots on them. I used the Liquid copper after watching the video and doesn’t seem to be working. Can ya help me along and maybe tell me what’s going on
The copper should work but it will take time. If new leaves started to form, that is a good sign. Don't spray too much copper though. Follow the instructions on the bottle. You can also try a diluted vinegar/water mixture. Try 15% vinegar to 85% water.
@@CountryLivingExperience what I’m wondering is do I have a fungal problem for sure with these green shoots having those rust colored dots all over them if we were able to do a quick video call then maybe you could take a look at them and tell me exactly where to cut to etc. thank you so much, brother. I love your videos.
I have a avocado tree that looks like it’s branches and trunk have a disease. It’s full of rust now but I don’t know what to treat it, can I use the liquid copper?
I have a few fruit trees that have fruit on them right now, is it okay to use the copper fungicide? The trees have some leaf curl and black spot on them at the moment. Also is it okay to use copper fungicide after pruning a tree? My trees need a lot of summer pruning right now.
sorry i'm new to farming so i have some questions ( and i accidentally drop an egg on the floor and busted it and it was are first egg eaten by our chickens) 1. how long does it take for a peach tree to grow peaches? 2. what are the best plants to plant to have food 3. our chickens were not laying until we took the fake eggs out and they started laying. why was that? 4 why do our chickens nest but don't lay eggs? ( and if you can can you make about bees we found a huge honey bee nest in our tree beside the coop and we want to get them)
1. For fruit trees, it depends. If they are properly fed and watered it will usually take 5 years for a good fruit crop. 2. Any plants that you can grow in your area are the best plants. 3. I have no idea. 4. They may be too young. 5. I don't know anything about bees yet.
Is that a deer fence you have around your orchard? If so how is it working out? Do the young trees need to be protected further from deer in addition to that type of fence? Thanks for your videos. Learn a lot.
That is just around my grape enclosure. I put it up years ago but no deer come that close to my house because of my dog. We did a video on how to deter deer from around fruit trees. Here is the video.....ruclips.net/video/wbmTPnNAKJ0/видео.html
Hey, thank you for the video. I have a question if I treat my young fruit trees with the copper fungicide in early evening and then the next evening we have a heavy rain downpour. Do I need to treat them again or do I need to wait for a time and I wait how long do I have to wait?
You're welcome. As long as it had enough time to dry on the leaves, it will last through many rainfalls. If there was not enough time, I would respray in a week.
Go White! I would try to use a light vinegar solution actually. Try mixing 3 oz of household vinegar with 1 gallon of water. If that is not helping, try the copper fungicide that I mentioned.
Hi, our pear tree leaves have orange spots and have fruits on the tree. These are 3 years old. Since it have fruits on it, do u recommend to apply only 3 parts water to 1 part vinegar for now? can’t we apply liquid copper as we have fruits on the tree? Can you clarify if Neem Oil and soap can be applied when trees have fruit? All these needs to be applied individually rather than in a single container? Appreciate your response
Hello. If there is fruit, you can apply a very weak vinegar solution at about maybe 5 to1. You can spray neem oil at anytime. Never mix all of these together in a single container.
@@CountryLivingExperience Thank you very much! The leaves are pretty bad, so would it be ok to wait? We got Safer's insecticide soap spray, that can be used on flowers, but you think it will be not safe to use it on apple tree flowers, right?
@@CountryLivingExperience The leaves have bownish "burns" that made the them kinda curled a bit, there are also dark dots in some places. Same dots I noticed on the cherry tree. I saw some moths, one large and few tiny ones and a yelowish-greenish spider in the cherry tree. Showed the picture of the leaves in the gardening group on FB, nobody ansewered what's hapenning:( I am no expert, cannot tell wether it's a disease. There is a crabapple tree next to it which is in full bloom and looks fine. A couple of people suggested cutting off the affected brunches. The rest - using isecticide spray, wood vinegar, soap spray. All bruches are affected, I cannot cut all of them:( I remember removing a tight web in the apple tree a couple of weeks ago. Except for occasoional ants I didn't see any other unsects in my apple tree. Thank you very much:)))))
It sounds like you have Fire Blight on them. You need to treat that with copper sulfate solution. Prune off the bad ones and spray the whole tree after you have pruned. Just do your best. The yellow green spiders are good guys. Moths can be controlled with Neem Oil and soap mixture.
Question for advice: In FloridaI have two mature Ligustrums. Something is eating and killing all new growth. I don't know if they are white flies or beetles of some sort, all I know is that whatever is eating the new foliage they are nocturnal because I can never seen them. I have tried Neem oil, and Malathion and even a combination of them and if I don't spay them every 7-10 days the new leaves are gone and all new life is stunted. It is so frustrated, any idea what type of insect I am fighting and how to kill them once and for all, if possible?
You shouldn't spray them in the same day. They won't react negatively but it is best to give a few days in between. Only spray the copper once every few weeks.
@@CountryLivingExperience what season is the spraying done? Obviously, not summer when there is fruit on the tree, but that leaves fall and early spring.
I think I’ve got it reading through these questions. Copper spray once every few weeks and the neem oil, say every week? And both can spray while fruit is on the trees? If there’s no sign of fungus, do. I still spray the copper?
@@debbielacy4357 correct. You can use the copper as a preventative at the beginning of the seasons. you should not use it more than about 4-5 times per year however.
@@CountryLivingExperience thanks so much for the reply.. my package didn't have the mix instructions on it. And this season I got real bad leaf curl on my peach tree.. all the videos I seen none actually gave the mix they used .. so thank you so much.. 1oz per gallon of water.. ... Got it
I have a loquat tree that has really bad black spot on leaves and the fruit. The trunk is damaged badly with a fungal disease so I think it's pretty much had it
Im kinda confused. I did a lot of reserch and they say only use the copper fungicide during dormancy but then switch to "Captan and malathion" sprays because something like a liquid 7 will thin your fruit & i dont want that.
@@MattyDemello I do have to mention that if you use it right before dormancy ends, it will better the chances of controlling those early spring disease waves.
@CountryLivingExperience yup. Definitely. I'm very new to all this, but I put a few fruit trees in the last season, which I sprayed during dormancy and up to tight clusters, almost ready to open buds. Those trees are perfect. The trees I planted this season in very early spring, I didn't spray those because it was already too late, and those all have leaf spots now. 1 of my plum trees had a few fruit sets, but I used liquid 7 because leaf minors were already eating the leaves, and my fruit fell off. Then I read only Malathion insecticide will not drop fruit or thin when tiny & young. Once the fruit is bigger then I read, I could use a liquid 7. But man is there a ton to learn huh? Hopefully I get it down to a science. I would eventually like to go as organic as I can. Good luck bud. Thanks for the videos.
I have never used Sevin or Malathion because I only spray organic on my trees. Yes, for sure there is a ton to learn and I am certainly still learning myself.
What's your thought about adding a littler bit of fertilizer to the mix? I thought that some use foliar spray to get nutrients into the trees, but not sure if it could cause a chemical reaction with some of the other products
I would not mix them together as you will have no idea how the chemicals will react with one another. It would be good to wait a few days between spraying any other sprays as well.
Blight is a specific fungal infection. Spraying the ground won't do much as most insects are flying. It may control ants which would help control aphids.
@@CountryLivingExperience ok I just bought fruit trees there all 3 years old 6 of them to be exact. A plum peach pomegranate orange lemon and mendarine tree to n I wanna go all organic. So the trees that go dormat spray 3 times well there dormat n neem oil or vinegar all the other time even if there's fruit on them???
