White bloom on peach leaves what to do. Why do peach leaves turn red? When to process a peach

Among the main diseases of peach, the main one is leaf curl on the scale of harmfulness and treatment, distribution is in the lead in the first positions.

The disease usually begins to appear in early spring and can be seen with the naked eye: on newly blossomed young leaves, bubbly swellings of a light green color suddenly form, later they change color to pinkish and even reddish, become quite fragile and are observed curly.

If you do not fight this disease, then the tree can absolutely be bare in May - early June. In addition to the leaves on the peach, shoots can also be affected by curliness.

A pathogenic infection of the fungus overwinters on branches, shoots with curl, under the scales of dormant buds, in micro cracks in the tree bark and on abrasions with gum. rapid development curlyness on peaches is facilitated by low ambient temperature and saturated air humidity. The dangerous period on peach trees is a decade before the start of spring bud break and the same period after the growth of young leaves.

Curly peach treatment in the period of progression, its extremely difficult thing. Protection against peach diseases from annoying curls should be a complex of therapeutic measures. Among them, a special place is given to sanitary and preventive measures.

They consist in cutting, pruning the ear of the affected shoots, carefully collecting and burning the fallen infected leaves. This is done in the fall or is suitable in early spring before bud break. Pruning should be done in May, the signs of curly disease will be clearly visible, and there will be no spread of fungus spores. In the fall, it was necessary to treat the peaches with a 3% ordinary Bordeaux mixture. But if you haven't, don't miss the time in early spring.

In the phase of bud swelling, spray the tree with a 1-2% bluish solution of copper sulphate (without lime), repeat the treatment two to four days after that. For prevention, double spraying with 50% copper oxychloride (0.5-0.75% solution) is also effective during the period of primary swelling and the beginning of bud break.

You need to imagine the curliness of peaches disease - fungal, cut off the affected parts of the peach and spray well with vitriol. Then we remove part of the earth from under the plant. These peaches require careful attention and preventive care. There is a lack of mobile potassium in the soil structure, and the trees cannot resist diseases and annoying pests.

After spending spray on peach buy what you need potash fertilizer dissolve 1 cup per 20 liters. and spray all around. Fruit trees, garden shrubs flowers growing nearby. If you are engaged in manure, then the infected compost is untreated.

Horus works well. With the undesirable use of strong poisons - there are means biological preparations, a lot of them. Mikosan (Ukraine), there were practically no signs of curly hair. Varieties: Juicy, Red Haven, Demerdzhiksky. It is necessary to process more than 3 times a season, the first spraying, when the foliage is already well bloomed, before flowering.

Used in the treatment of drugs, such as Ridomil Gold, Profit, Ordan, they are for curly peach, contain mancozeb main component from curls.

Curly stone fruit trees are a fungal spring disease, there will be no repetitions in the current season, therefore, when spraying in autumn, apricots are treated blue vitriol the content is one percent, to destroy the spores of the fungus. In the spring, spraying with Horus (half a teaspoon of 10 liters of water) on the green crown and immediately after flowering. Peach trees do not need to be treated with copper-containing preparations on the leaves - they can throw off the foliage. Undoubtedly, sanitary pruning, the destruction of diseased, affected foliage, also helps. Horus and blue vitriol are stable remedies.

To get rid of curl on the leaves, it is recommended to spray the trees with fungicide preparations. It is necessary to spray peaches 2 times a year with a 3% proven Bordeaux mixture. It is usually done in the fall, with fallen leaves, and in the spring, before the buds open.

It showed itself well and having good reviews on the destruction of curliness, the drug fungicide "Skor". The agent has a positive preventive effect for up to 10 days and an important therapeutic effect for up to 5 days. The drug "Skor" is safe for gardeners and the surrounding suburban environment and is non-toxic. 1 ampoule (2 ml), dissolves completely in 10 liters of water, having a consumption per 1 hundred square meters of fruit trees.

Pruning diseased and infected shoots on peach, treatment is done with fungicides when the first signs of the presence of the disease are detected, further after 12 days. A solution of colloidal sulfur suspension (1%) works well. When the temperature is +25+30, it can be sprayed by mixing ground sulfur simply with lime at a dose of 2:1. The Bordeaux mixture helps everywhere (100 g of the copper sulfate preparation plus 100 g of the lime known to us is carefully diluted into 10 liters) when the vegetation phase is in progress with a 1% prepared solution up to 5 times.

Abiga-Peak is applied 40-50 g. 10 l. in the process of growth 4 times in the interval of 2 weeks. Quickly use the drug (0.2 kg/ha) - the main thing is the first spraying on the "green cone, and the second - after flowering."

Curly peach manifests itself in spring with sharp and strong changes in daily temperatures. The best remedy from curlyness on a peach, cut off the leaves affected by the disease (be sure to burn them), when pouring fruits, there is no curlyness at all and young leaves are no longer affected.

Over the past 5 years, peach culture has become widespread in home gardens and summer cottages in all regions of Ukraine. So, in the northwestern regions of his normal growth favored by warm weather with prolonged thaws in winter period. If weather conditions are favorable for the growth and development of peach, then diseases, pests, lack of soil and air moisture, inept or untimely use of pesticides disrupt the normal course of these processes. Among the common diseases, the most harmful are leaf curl and fruit rot. For a qualified protective measures knowledge is needed about pathogens, about the conditions conducive to their development and about protective equipment to help cure an infected tree or prevent pathogens from infecting it.

Threaten curly

The causative agent of peach leaf curl affects leaves, shoots, less often fruits. The disease is most harmful in years with a cool, long and wet spring, both in young and fruiting plantations. In a short period of time, starting from the moment of bud break and after 10 days, all young leaves are affected. They grow unevenly, deform, become corrugated, acquire a reddish-pink or light yellow color. Diseased shoots stop developing, turn yellow-green, thicken, bend, their internodes are shortened.

8-10 days after the introduction of the infection into the leaf, a white waxy coating of marsupial sporulation of the fungus is formed on its lower side. After the formation of spores that remain to overwinter and infect healthy plants the next year, the leaves turn brown, dry out and crumble. The fruits also crumble, infected shoots dry out or freeze in winter. During sporulation, the infection spreads throughout the garden. A large number of the spore overwinters in gums and cracks in the bark. In the spring, rain-washed spores are released from the gum and cause mass infection of plants.

Severely affected plants become unstable to stress, their productivity decreases, and gum is released. In the chronic course of the disease, the trees gradually die.

... AND MONILIOSIS

The causative agent of moniliosis overwinters as a mycelium in mummified fruits on trees and under trees, as well as in the tissues of affected branches. If you do not control pests that damage plants (goose, codling moth), then the number of damaged fruits increases, they are affected by rot. It is known, after all, that damage to the fruit by rot results in a violation of the integrity of their surface shell by wasps, bumblebees, birds, hail, as well as the contact of healthy and diseased fruits. The number of rotten fruits increases in varieties with thin skin, devoid of wax coating, slightly pubescent.

Amateur gardeners cultivating peach report in letters about cases of shedding of leaves and fruits after protective treatments fungicides. The same situation, according to other gardeners, is sometimes observed on trees that are not sprayed.

The causes of premature shedding of leaves and fruits in peach can be different. One of them is a lack of moisture in the soil and air, which inhibits the growth of "plants, leads to crushing and shedding of fruits. The fruits become low-juicy and bitter. For normal growth and development of a peach, 450-700 ml of precipitation is needed per year. In dry and hot weather they irrigate the soil under the trees so that its moisture content is 60-85% of the full field capacity.On loose, moist and fertilized soil, the peach does not shed its leaves and forms large and tasty fruits.

Another reason may be the poisoning of trees with copper-containing preparations, for example, as a result of repeated use of Bordeaux liquid in conditions high humidity. The decisive role here is played not by the amount of precipitation, but by the duration of moisture. Among stone fruits, peach is the most sensitive to copper. With repeated spraying with copper preparations during the growing season, for many years, copper accumulates in plant organs in excess quantities due to both the absorption of Bordeaux liquid or copper oxychloride applied to the leaves and the intake from the soil. In sensitive varieties, under the influence of copper-containing fungicides, disturbances in oxidative processes occur, respiration increases, the water content in leaves and fruits decreases, which leads to their shedding.

Protect fungicides

For the prevention and treatment of peach from diseases, a complex of works is being carried out. In autumn or early spring, shoots affected and shriveled from curliness are cut out, rotten ones are collected under the trees and dried fruits are removed from the trees, and then they are buried to a depth of 50 cm. In the spring, when signs of the disease can be clearly seen, they are re-pruned (in May) peach shoots. In late autumn, the soil is dug up in the near-trunk strips, while closing up the affected leaves. Resistant varieties of peach suffer less from disease or are not at all affected by curl or fruit rot. Relatively resistant to fruit rot are varieties Juicy, Golden Jubilee, Early Champion, to curliness - varieties Kyiv early, Juicy Redhaven, Krasnoshchekiy, Kyiv 12, Early Kuban, Simferopolsky early, Saturn, Donetsk yellow. Highly resistant to curl peach varieties Nadranniy Kyiv, Memory Radionova, Bagrinovsky.

To protect peach trees from curl and fruit rot, they are sprayed with 3% Bordeaux liquid during the "raspberry bud" phenophase, and immediately after flowering - with one of the preparations: fast, 25% k.e., chorus, 75% c. g. or delan, 70% c. g. (consumption rate, respectively - 2 ml, 2-3 and 10 g per 10 liters of water). In the case of the first signs of curl on the leaves, it is better to use soon, as it has a systemic mechanism of action and a strong therapeutic (for 5 days) and preventive (8-10 days) effect. 12-14 days after the previous spraying, treatment is carried out with one of the above fungicides. After leaf fall, the trees and leaves under them are sprayed with 3% Bordeaux liquid.

The use of Bordeaux liquid on a peach in the summer is undesirable, since the copper contained in it causes yellowing and shedding of leaves.

To obtain environmentally friendly products on peach varieties that are slightly affected by diseases, 3% zinc sulfate is used (in early spring and autumn). The dusting of trees with ashes also reduces the damage to the leaf apparatus by diseases.

Against powdery mildew, an infusion of hay dust is effective (1-1.5 kg of crushed mass is poured into 3 liters of water, kept for 3 hours). For better adhesion to the surface to be treated, before use, add 40 g of pre-dissolved in warm water laundry soap or 100 ml fresh milk.

In a working solution designed to protect trees from diseases, it is necessary to add insecticides (Arrivo, Inta-VIR, Decis or Karate), which protect peaches from codling moths, goose and other pests that contribute to the infection of fruits with gray rot.

Igor SHEVCHUK

In order for the peach to please the gardener with its delicious fruits, it is necessary to properly care for it. Moreover, its owner needs to regularly monitor appearance this tree and inspect it for diseases and dangerous insects.

Everyone should know that timely preventive measures help to eliminate many troubles during the cultivation of this valuable crop. To prevent the appearance of diseases and pests of peach, the gardener should use insecticides and fungicides. Fungicides help prevent the occurrence of a certain disease. Moreover, they are very effective in treating a tree at an early stage in the development of the disease. As for insecticides, these substances directly affect pests and destroy them. So, the owner of a peach, sooner or later, may face the following diseases of this valuable crop:

leaf curl
fruit rot
powdery mildew
cytosporosis
moniliosis
clasterosporiosis

The most common pests, in turn, are the following:

eastern codling moth
spider mite
scab
plum codling moth

leaf diseases

Every gardener should know that there are diseases that affect the leaves of this plant. To date, the most common considered are:

leaf curl
powdery mildew
clasterosporiasis

In order for these peach leaf diseases not to hit the tree, the gardener needs to take timely measures to combat them.

The causative agent of leaf curl the fungus Taphrina deformans T is considered. The first signs of such an ailment are the formation of red swellings on the leaf plates. Over time, they swell and appear on their surface. white coating. Untimely treatment of this fungus leads to the death of the tree. To prevent the occurrence of leaf curl, the gardener should spray with copper sulfate (1%) at the beginning of spring. In addition to this tool, he can use fungicides such as Skor, Hom, Raek. Bordeaux liquid (3%) is also a very effective substance in carrying out preventive work. To significantly reduce the risk of infection with this fungal disease, it is recommended that the gardener plant the peach in a place where there is good UV light and no excessive moisture. If the curl of the leaves hit the tree, then the gardener needs to treat it as soon as possible. To do this, rid the plant of the affected areas and burn them. Loosening the soil is also considered a very effective method of combating this fungus. In addition, the gardener needs to spray the tree with solutions of lime and sulfur every autumn.

Clusterosporiasis also belongs to one of the most dangerous peach diseases. It can affect not only leaves, but also shoots, fruits, branches and stems. The main symptom of such a disease is the formation on the surface of the leaf plate brown spots with dark purple outline. To save the plant from clasterosporiasis, the gardener needs to treat it with fungicides (especially in cases where the tree is located on personal plot). In addition, he can apply Bordeaux mixture. This solution should be used before bud break and after the flowering period. If this disease of the peach tree is discovered, then its owner needs to cut and burn the affected shoots. At the cut site, it is necessary to treat with lime and a solution of copper sulfate.

powdery mildew is also considered a fairly common disease. First of all, it affects young leaves and tops of shoots. Their damage leads to inhibition of tree growth. In some cases, this disease causes his death. The main measure to combat powdery mildew is the use of fungicides.

Fruit diseases

Every gardener who plans or has already acquired this tree needs to carefully study issues related to peach fruit diseases. The most common are the following:

fruit rot
moniliosis
powdery mildew

As stated above, powdery mildew infects the leaves of this plant. In addition to them, this disease damages the fruit. The main sign of the appearance of such a disease is the formation of white spots on the fruit itself. various sizes. Powdery mildew leads to a loss of taste of fruits and their deformation.

Moniliosis, in turn, is also a fairly serious disease. It is characterized by the formation of grayish rings of spores on the fruit. A gardener can detect such a disease during the growing season of a peach. For the purpose of prevention, the gardener needs to spray with the use of Bordeaux liquid (3%). If this disease of the peach tree nevertheless appeared, then it needs to cut off all the affected areas and burn them.

Concerning fruit rot, then this fungal disease also affects fruits. Its spores are carried to fruit by wind, insects and rainwater. This ailment first manifests itself during or after the flowering period of the tree. In order to prevent its formation on the fruits, the gardener must regularly thin them out and pick the fruits very carefully, without damaging the branches. In addition, he needs to spray the peach with organic fungicides or a solution of copper oxychloride.

trunk diseases

Cytosporosis is one of the most dangerous fungal diseases for peach. It affects the leaves, branches and trunk of a tree. Its first sign is the formation of brown spots and streams on the bark of the plant. Such a disease of the trunk leads to the death of the tree. In order to rid the peach of this ailment, its owner must remove the affected twigs as soon as possible and burn them. In order to prevent this plant, it is recommended to use Bordeaux liquid (3 or 4 percent).

Pests

In addition to diseases, pests can also affect peach. The most common insect that damages this tree is the aphid. It abundantly populates the green areas of this plant and actively feeds on its juice. Black peach aphid is considered especially dangerous. In order to prevent the appearance of this pest, the gardener is recommended to use karbofos or a solution of laundry soap (1 bar must be used per bucket of water). In some cases, aphids are eliminated with their own hands. In addition to this insect, this tree can also affect the scale insect. This pest, as a rule, settles in the bark of a tree. In the autumn, the scale insect lays eggs, after which the caterpillars hatch in the spring and stick to the shoots. These pests suck the juice from the plant, which is why untimely treatment leads to its death. In order for this insect not to damage the peach, its owner needs to apply an emulsion mineral oils(before bud break) and karbofos (during the growing season). Plum codling moth also strikes given plant. Such a butterfly hibernates in cracks in the bark. Its danger lies in the fact that after its settlement, the fruits that have not yet ripened fall off. In order to prevent the appearance of this pest, the gardener needs to use insecticides such as Metaphos, Antio, Dursban, etc.

Results
Diseases and the fight against them - this is exactly what the owner should know peach tree. In addition to diseases, there are also pests that cause considerable harm to the plant. In order to prevent their occurrence, the gardener must know that:

Processing peach in the spring from diseases and pests involves the use of fungicides and insecticides.
The inept use of poison can provoke not only the death of insects useful for peach, but also adversely affect the health of its owner and environment.
For. so that the tree does not die and please the gardener with delicious fruits, he should regularly monitor his condition.

Peach is a tender tree that is afraid of frost, various pests and, of course, diseases. One of the most typical and dangerous is peach leaf curl. What it is, and how to deal with it, we will tell further.

Did you know? Where the peach spread around the world is not known for certain. The researchers determined that the wild species of peach Prunus davidiana Franch, which is found near Beijing, China, is closest to it. But it is believed that the plant penetrated from northwestern India to Persia, from where it then spread throughout Europe. In Italy, the peach first appeared in the middle of the 1st century. Now actively cultivated in warm parts Eurasia and America.

What is peach leaf curl

The disease is considered the most common and is among the leaders in the frequency of damage to the peach tree. It appears on shoots and young leaves. Moreover, if the leaves are already 2 weeks old, they have a minimal chance of picking up the disease. Most often they get sick at the age of 5 - 8 days.

The disease manifests itself in the form of blistering swellings on the leaves. At first they are light green, then amber-red, and then brown. A wax coating appears on them, where the spores of the fungus ripen.

The bubbles become brittle, and the leaves themselves thicken, dry, blacken and crumble. First, the lower ones, then in the middle of the shoot. As a result, a few leaves remain on its tip, and it looks like a brush. As a rule, one- and two-year-old shoots are affected.

The branches themselves are also affected by the disease. They become yellowish, thicken, bend, and eventually completely dry out. The internodes become thicker and shorter. Accordingly, on next year a tree that has no shoots from the previous year does not bear fruit.

With a strong defeat, the buds die already in the first year of infection, without bearing fruit. If they manage to form, they also become deformed.

Did you know? The source of infection is the spores of Taphrina deformans, a marsupial fungus. Infection of the tree occurs once a year, in the spring. Spores penetrate inside the kidneys, as well as in the cracks and wounds of the shoots, from which the gum begins to ooze. Affected leaves become a breeding ground for new spores, which disperse over the bark of the tree, where they overwinter, and begin a new cycle of infection in the spring. Mainly affects Taphrina deformans fruit trees, but most often nectarines and peaches.

If you do not spray the peach from curliness in time, already in May you can have a completely bare tree in the garden. It is weakening and may not survive next winter's frosts.

Preventive measures for frizziness

The first and main preventive measure to combat curly hair is choosing the right place for planting a peach. It must grow to sunny side, dry place and at a considerable distance from other trees.

Important! contributes to the rapid spread of the disease high humidity air, low ambient temperature, sudden changes in temperature. That's why spring period is the most dangerous for the peach tree.

Among preventive measures the most popular is peach treatment with copper sulphate (1%), Bordeaux liquid (3%) or fungicide. Of the latter, "Skor", "Khom", "Raek" are recommended.

Preventive treatment carried out 2 times a year. First - autumn after the trees shed their leaves. Second - in the spring before the first leaves appear. Although some experts recommend that after the first spraying, repeat it after 4 to 5 days.

Important! Spraying is done in calm and dry weather. Otherwise, the wind will carry the solution to neighboring plants, bypassing the peach, or the rain will immediately wash it away.

How to deal with the disease? Preparations for combating leaf curl

Treatment of a tree from this disease is very complex and time-consuming, therefore it is recommended to pay enough attention to preventive methods immediately when planting.

And an important place among them is occupied by sanitary and preventive work.They include pruning or complete removal affected shoots, which must be immediately collected and burned outside the site.

If these events are held in the fall, all the leaves that have fallen from the tree must be burned along with them. In the spring, those shoots are cut off, on which signs of the disease are clearly indicated.

Did you know? There is still no consensus among gardeners - when is it more efficient to prune in the spring: in May, when infected shoots are visible, but the spores have not yet spread through the tree, or in early spring, along with the removal of frozen and dried shoots.

In addition to treating peach with a Bordeaux mixture, the use of fungicides is effective in the treatment. Most often, it is recommended to use "Skor" because it is non-toxic, and therefore safe for the environment and the gardeners themselves.

For one hundred square meters of land, 2 ml of the drug (1 ampoule) is needed, which must be dissolved in 10 liters of water. The therapeutic effect lasts up to 5 days, and the prophylactic effect lasts up to 10 days.

Also apply "Abiga-Peak" at the rate of 40 - 50 g per 10 liters of water. It needs to be used 4 times with breaks of 2 weeks.

Important! Experienced gardeners know that a peach is a finicky plant that requires strict adherence to the rules for caring for it, special climatic conditions. He is equally sensitive to various drugs. If you make even a little mistake with the dosage or spraying period, the tree can shed all the foliage, fruits, slow down their development, or dry out altogether.

Folk remedies for curly hair

As already mentioned, the chemical treatment of peach with fungicides and Bordeaux liquid is the most effective methods fight the disease. But some gardeners try to use chemicals at the very last turn trying with all his might to cure the plant folk remedies.

Yes, it is recommended to use spraying with tobacco infusion. A kilogram of dried tobacco or tobacco dust is poured into 5 liters of boiling water and infused for 3 days. The infusion is filtered, diluted with water 1: 2 and the affected trees are sprayed 2 times with an interval of 2 weeks.

It is considered effective emulsion,prepared from 90 g of slaked lime and 350 g of softened clay, diluted in 10 liters of water. First you need to dilute the clay with water to a homogeneous state, and then, stirring thoroughly, add slaked lime. The solution must be free of sediment.

It must be used immediately, without leaving the next time. But the expected effect will be obtained only with regular spraying of trees. This rule also applies to other folk methods.

But most often the fungus is resistant to folk decoctions. Therefore, if you do not want to use serious preparations for treating a tree, in addition to trimming peach leaves affected by curliness, it is recommended to spray with 1% Bordeaux liquid, a harmless Biostat product, which includes essential oils, as well as special mixtures.

For example, a mixture of lime and ground sulfur in a ratio of 1:2 or a solution of colloidal sulfur suspension (1%). In this case, spraying is recommended at air temperatures above 25°C. But remember, if folk remedies do not give a visible result, do not neglect the treatment of peach with fungicides.

Leaf curl is a common disease of many agricultural plants and trees. The peach is no exception and, being prone to this disease, can lose a very significant part of the fruit. It is wrong to think that this is only an aesthetically noticeable peach disease - leaf curl causes damage to the shoots, which are deformed, and can lead to the death of the tree, not to mention losses in yield. In this regard, at the first signs of the disease fruit tree treatment measures must be taken.

How is the disease manifested and what is dangerous

It provokes curliness in the period of early spring. This usually occurs in conditions of high humidity and low temperature. Just at this time, the tree buds, and the spores are activated and start the process of developing diseases that the peach cannot resist. Curly leaves, the fight against which should be carried out already in the early stages, is eliminated precisely by destroying the fungus. If appropriate measures are not taken, the infection affects all leaf buds against the background of marsupial sporulation of the fungus.

The development of the disease begins with the fact that the leaves turn pale, after which they change their shade to a reddish color. From this moment, the peach leaf curl begins. Treatment should begin at the first symptoms, but sparing means. If you start the disease, then the curl will hit the shoots, and eventually the ovaries. Peach fruits harden, lose their taste and become inedible. If the disease is not fought for several years, then in addition to the loss of the crop, you can lose the whole tree, which will die.

Removing affected leaves

Coping with curliness is not easy, but if you approach the fight against the fungus in a complex way, then the result is likely to be positive. Pruning and subsequent burning of affected leaves and shoots is one of the primary means to defeat peach leaf curl. Treatment in this way is usually carried out in May, at a time when the signs of the disease are most pronounced. Also experienced gardeners practice removal in several stages for greater efficiency. For example, the first pruning can be done when flowering is over. The repeated procedure is performed until the spores of the fungal infection disperse.

How to spray for curly

Spraying remains one of the most effective means of combating tree diseases. It is important to consider in what period the peach was infected. Leaf curl, which is controlled after flowering, requires the use of tank biopreparations. These include trichodermin, planriz and pentaphage. Also at this time, fungicides can be used and Before bud break, the same means are used, as well as milk of lime and urea. When the leaf fall has departed, it is necessary to spray the tree and soil in the zone of the stem circle - that is, where the fallen leaves lie. In this case, treatment with the listed means is possible, but without fungicides.

Processing with Bordeaux mixture

Curl protection in recent times Increasingly, 3% Bordeaux mixture is being provided. It should be noted right away that this method has a serious disadvantage: increased phytotoxicity, which, however, well eliminates the curl of peach leaves. The treatment is accompanied by a delay in the entry of the tree into the fruiting period and affects the low yield. In addition, treatment with such a preparation contributes to an increase in the copper content in peach leaves. Moreover, the availability rate heavy metal will increase as the shoots grow.

Despite all the negative factors, there are obvious advantages from using Bordeaux mixture. If in the fight against other diseases its effectiveness may not justify itself against the background of negative factors, then the curl of peach leaves, which is treated regularly with this remedy, will definitely give a beneficial result. This option is especially useful in the fight against an infection that has developed over several years.

Clay processing

If for processing it is rather recommended as a specialized means of combating the disease, then clay is a traditional folk remedy. It is used in composition with lime and acts as an effective adhesive. But not only this property of the substance is important - clay also works as an adsorbent, not to mention the presence of a number of nutrients in the composition. Among them are silicon, aluminum, sulfur and other components that allow you to defeat the curliness of peach leaves. Treatment with folk remedies in the form of clay with lime improves the biological and physico-chemical characteristics of the peach, at the same time nourishing the tree with mineral elements.

If it is not possible to use clay together with lime milk, then the option of using the first one in pure form. In this case, the fungicidal effect will be less pronounced, but the phytocidal properties will manifest themselves quite effectively, eliminating the peach disease. Curly leaves are most easily eliminated with a clay-lime mixture in an optimal consistency, which provides a neutral effect. To do this, the ratio of clay to milk of lime should be 4:1.

Modern remedies for curly hair

It happens that the action of the clay-lime mortar does not help, and the use of the Bordeaux mixture is excluded due to its negative factors in relation to a particular plant. So the question arises of how to treat a peach from leaf curl with minimal harm to the tree itself. The answer lies in the preparations of a new generation, among which are fast, delan and chorus. They can be used singly, in combination, or alternately. In addition, the addition of a clay-lime mortar can significantly prolong the effect of the same delan. According to experts, such drugs provide 98 percent biological effectiveness in the treatment of leaf curl.
