Diseases take a rest while insects steal the spot light and ReTain continues to be of interest. This one's short and sweet... or not sweet, depending upon how you look at things.
Wild wet weather increases exotic disease pressure, insects are... well, pretty mellow this week actually and its time to ReTain them peaches. This week's Healthy Fruit is a collaboration between Jon Clements, Dan Cooley and Jaime Piñero with a bonus guest article from Cornell Extension colleagues Dan Donahue and Mike Basedow.

It's a pesty episode this week. Still working through a backlog of Healthy Fruit edition and this one is crawling with critters and rot. This episode throws us (gently) back to the first week of July, the 6th in fact, which seems wicked long ago.

Oh, hey there, long time no... erm... listen.
This episode is heavy on the way Jon sees things with a healthy serving of entomology. Tune in and harken back to June 25th or so.

This week's UMass IPM Fruit Loop features Jon Clements, Dan Cooley, Jaime Piñero and myself (Hawkeye) from the fruit team and a guest article from Cornell's Dr. Terrence Robinson. Join us for a spin through the orchard where we cover meeting updates, currently degree day accumulations, insect pest captures and apple scab burn out program recommendations and oh so much more.

Thinning windows are closing, ascospores are giving up a last gasp and even insect pests are slowing their roll this week. We seem to be at the tail end of the mad spring rush and getting ready to enter into that summer holding pattern (but more on that as things develop). Keep your eyes peeled for straggling plum curculio and #getoutandscout to see if you incurred any primary scab infections that need to be managed to prevent a secondary outbreak. Plus, oh so very much more. Take a listen!

Well we are a few days late but not a single dollar short! Insect and disease pressure ramp up this week while your thinning window closes. The whole fruit team contributes to another info-packed episode. Still just my voice, still just my bad jokes. I have no regrets... Do you??

Pressure to get out and manage multiple tree fruit considerations mounts as temperatures rise. Apple thinning remains high on the priority list. Plum curculio activity is picking up but has not yet hit peak while apple scab falls down on the to do list as a result of unfavorable infection conditions. Finally, fireblight is on the scene and ready to attack any open blossoms. All this and so much more in this newest episode of the UMass IPM Fruit Loop.
