    Too late for me to spray my apples and pears now. Will physical barrier methods like bagging in paper or organza bags work for coddling moths and apple maggots? Great video, I’ll save it for future reference.

    The apples fall and the apples have worms near the core what can I do and what is the best time of the year to spray and what spray should I get, please help me, thanks

      Apples will fall if they have worms. They will also drop to thin naturally, known as June drop. I have to spray in my area every two to three weeks after the petals drop till a month before harvest. I use spinosad.

    Thank you for these! Have you shared info for peaches / plums ? Nearly all of my peaches have had little worm-like things and brown dusting (maybe twig borers?) and rot :( So disappointing. Will the same insect sprays work?

    • @Alisorganics
      @Alisorganics  Рік тому +2

      Yes the same will work. I spray peaches and less often, about a month before ripening time and again when they just start to get color.

      ​@Alisorganics do you mean just before the show color and again just before ripening?
      I considering planting 1 apple and 1 peach tree. And I was afraid I won't be able to keep up with it. But you make it sound fairly simple. Just 2 trees 🙄😁

    Thanks a lot for the informative video!
    We have bad problem with leaves in our apple tree right now. Yellow paches, holes.
    Safer's organic soap spray can be used on flowers. Can it be used on apple tree when it's flowering?
    Thanks a lot)))

      It’s best not to spray anything while flowering. Even though the Safer insecticidal soap is “safe” it can weaken bees and the spray can interrupt the pollination process. But you can spray as soon as those petals drop! I hope that helps! Thank you 😊

      I will do that.
      Do you think it's still ok to use Tree Tanglefoot tape on the apple tree trunk?
      Thank you very much!

    If you spray monthly starting after final petal drop when do you stop for the year?

    • @maryprochilo4498
      @maryprochilo4498 4 місяці тому +1

      I saw in another video to stop just before the ripen.

      I stop spraying a few weeks before harvesting time.

    Can we put a bloom bag over them instead of spray them? Or does that not work for some reason?

    • @Alisorganics
      @Alisorganics  9 місяців тому +1

      You can place a bag over the fruit after pollination occurs. It works good if your tree is small. It's a lot of work. We have 6 apple trees and spraying is more time efficient for me.

      Can I use the spinosad only when the temps are high (like in the 90-100)? My Apple are getting attacked and I know they need something but now it’s hot here. :(
