Q&A – What should I spray on my peaches and when?

Question:
I get mixed up about what to spray on peaches and when. When should I spray what? Most of my peaches now have brown rot. I thought neem oil spray was going to help.

Answer:
Fungicide needs to be sprayed on peaches from spring to harvest. Home orchard spray contains a fungicide. Be sure you do not spray an insecticide when spraying your trees during bloom. You don’t what to hurt the bees. Good sanitation will help: clean up and dispose of any dead branches or leaves off the ground and mummified fruit off the tree.
