Processed apples, pears, cherries, insect and fungal infections
In an industrial scale fruits like apples and pears treated with chemistry to 10-15 times per season. Therefore, on the shelves are such beautiful fruit, but from an environmental point of view of their usefulness is questionable.
I treat my garden for the season just 3-4 times per season, using chemical and biological drugs, and this is enough to pests and diseases on trees was not, or was at the minimum amount.
First Treating Time
It is important not to miss the processing time, because the insects crawl out of their hiding places in early spring, when the outdoor temperature becomes + 5 + 6 C in the daytime. Also earlier activated fungal diseases (scab, moniliosis, rot, etc.), which due to its dispute on the older leaves, bark and dead fruit spread of trees and shrubs.
Thus, the first processing should be done on the stage of disease in a dormant buds until they swelled. This is the end of March or beginning of April. But also need to focus on the weather and not to a drizzling rain.
Especially need to pay on stone fruit, which are often subject to moniliosis (monilial or burn).
On apple trees often develop this disease as a scab.
Drugs against diseases
The most effective drug against diseases of fruit trees - a Bordeaux mixture (3 percent solution - at the first processing), Atk, Hom and Horus. You can use iron sulfate and urea (urea). Last taken and diluted per 700 grams. a bucket of water plus 50 grams. copper sulfate. drug "Iodine Pharma" perfect for supporters of organic farming.
The use of insecticides
The second spraying is carried out in phase from green kidney diseases and pests. That is, they swelled, turned green, but not dissolve.
Even this stage is called green cone. At this time it is necessary to carry out the processing of apple and pear trees with insecticide by weevil. He lays its eggs in the buds, which then appear larvae. The kidneys become brown and eventually disappear.
From simple control methods can be used sticky traps, which sell in the store. From preparations suitable Intavir, spark Decis Pro et al.
Third insecticide spraying is carried out in step rose bud (unopened flowers) of codling moth.
Insect lays eggs near the flowers or on the bud. Of eggs produced larvae that feed into the future by the apples. That is why the apples in the garden caught worm-eaten. In step rose bud can be used all the same products from pests that are listed above. Because biological agents can be added Fitoverm which operates at higher temperatures than in early spring.
The fourth control spraying of moniliosis phase formation is carried out in green ovaries. Carried out the reprocessing of codling plodozherki.
After processing your garden from pests and diseases, your benefits will not worm-eaten, and you will be with the harvest.
