Hi, I have a few peach trees and I live in the Pacific Northwest. Is there anything I can do this late in the season? The leaves are curling now. I haven't sprayed anything on the trees this year. Thank you, Lina
Though it is recommended to spray in the fall and spring prior to buds forming, I would go ahead and spray with a fungicide suited for fruit trees now.

Hello. I have a peach tree that bore fruit for the first time last year. There is an opening on the side of the tree that I am not sure why its there. Any suggestions what I should do? How can I ensure it bears the most fruit possible?

I just moved to a house with fruit trees. One of them is a peach tree and I may think it has a disease. Half of it is dead and it’s producing very little fruit on the half that still has life. Does it have a disease? And is there anything I can do to save it?

My tree is infected with peach tree leaf curl and has a lot of ants all over the trunk, branches, fruit and leaves. It has fruits on it that are exuding a clear to White to yellowish sap like substance and the leaves are curled and discolored. In your article it said to spray the tree before the blooms open up. My tree has no blooms and lots of baby peaches on it. My question is, do I just cut all the branches off? Or spray the tree even though there's fruit on it. I want to treat the infection and also the many ants crawling on it.

In March I planted a peach tree that had fruit on it. We harvested about 5 peaches and now would like to prune for shape. Could I prune it now or should I wait until early next spring? I live in central Florida and am afraid of disease if I prune now.
I have a preach that used to produce good fruit, very large peaches. now the peaches are about the size of a golf ball been that way for 2 years now.
Peach trees generally produce a large amount of fruit, but crowded conditions create small peaches. Thin the fruit out within the first 40 days after bloom before the pit hardens. Leave about 6 to 8 inches between the remaining fruit.
Proper fertilization improves peach tree growth and vigor, affects current fruit yield and influences the growth of fruitwood for next year's yield.
Irrigation and direct sunlight also play important roles in fruit size.

We got two peach tree seedlings about two months ago. one is doing great. the other one is having an issue. the seedling is about two feet tall. the leaves at the top of the seedling keep turning yellow and falling off. my husband cut about three inches off the top of the seedling the first time it happen but it didn't stop it. the leaves near the base of the seedling are green and look okay. but it is definitely behind the other tree in growth. do you know what could be causing this to happen? and what we need to do? thank you
Make sure the tree is receiving enough water.
