Garden Journal: Fruit and Nut Trees

Today, we had the fruit and nut trees pruned and fed with organic food. Again, we are probably a couple of weeks late as this should have been done during December or January. But, the leaf buds have not yet burst on the trees, so we’ll see what happens.

In addition, the trees received the following spray (per the California Master Gardener Handbook):

almond: dormant oil

apple: dormant oil

apricot: dormant oil & fixed copper (micro-cop)

cherry: dormant oil & fixed copper

peach & nectarine: dormant oil & fixed copper

pear: dormant oil

plum & pluot: dormant oil
