Well, as I've said elsewhere, I now have fireblight showing its sad face for the first time in 30 years here in the hills west of Ottawa, Ontario. Surprising with the HOT dry spring... yet here it is. Clearly identified. The winter and spring have been full of too many other diversions, so no good healthy spraying of the orchard occured.
I'm guessing what remains now is to cut back every branch that has any sign of browned flowers to 12" beyond the last infection. Then spray with EM, molasses, kelp, and maybe some fish emulsion. Would Neem oil help, too?
That's all the arsenal I have available at the moment. I might be able to find some thyme oil, tho' that's kinda doubtful. No hops around til autumn.
Any other suggestions as I aim to set forth on this path Friday morning? (scything under the trees is happening today to make access easier and finding the cut off branches possible)
Thanks for keeping this forum alive and full of helpful information.
