Spraying our Fruit Trees: Dormant Oil/Liquid Cooper for Overwintering Insects & Disease! Jana: Laura, I would be more careful in advising spraying healthy trees in home gardens/ small orchards. Healthy trees come with healthy natural balance. You need all kinds of creatures living in the soil including fungi and bacteria, as well as you need predators to feed on its prey in your garden. By preventive spraying you can disrupt that. It's different in monoculture orchards producing fruits for business, where the lack of plant diversity attracts more of the same problems, which are more difficult to be solved by nature itself. You have great influence so I am a bit worried that people would spray more than they actually need to, thinking while it's labeled organic it can cause no harm to nature.

Severe drought conditions are going to be a concern for our unseen future in all areas that are prone to drought. Gardeners please know that many non zone plants and even cold hardy ones in your areas will be harder to keep healthy do do the climate changing of zones across our globe. Plant as many native species and perhaps one cold zone higher in your area. Save and conserve water as much as possibly Although we have no control over nature we have control over our tendencies. Peace.

I recently treated my 5 orange trees with the All Season spray in late January then we were hit with a week long freeze in February here in TX (Houston. Most of my plants died, I'm trying to keep hope in my trees. All their leaves are still yellow, I broke a branch and noticed a very light bit of green inside the center of the branch. Is there anything I can do to get them to come back strong? Should I try to knock off all the yellow leaves?

Thank you Laura for the instructions, as I haven't had a fruit tree since I was a child, and then I wasn't in charge of keeping it healthy. The nurse in me was quite concerned for you, for not wearing gloves/mask/eye covering while you spray anything, even if organic. We must keep you healthy and happy so you can share your wonderful videos with us for decades to come.

OH MY GOD. this video of you made me realise that Iam watching a 24-7 Commercial of a bad kind every time. Nobody sprays his fruittrees after planting. Its only the Growers who Love to Spray them multiple time a year for no good reason. Wake up! Think about what you are doing! Why do you think youre new fruittrees are not healthy enough?

I can't fine root stimulator for my peach tree, what could I use instead. Help. Also, I planted two apple trees last year and one did nothing and the other had small halloween looking apples on it. Help. I may take them up because they are not growing. I did not use root stimulator either. Help. I am in North Carolina, eastern area.

Laura, do you deal with japanese beetles in your area? Our fruit trees get totally defoliated by japanese beetles in the Summer; before they move on to other things like our blackberries and raspberries and japanese maples. I've sprayed cold pressed neem oil and diatomaceous earth repeatedly. Neither stopped them.

Thank you soooooo much for this! I watch all your videos and always wanted you to give us more advice and suggestions on how to take care of tress in terms of prevention and nutrition. I didnt know that I could spray a tree, even though it has no signs of disease. No wonder my cherry blossom is so sick now.

Followed along and sprayed my fruit trees with the same mix, just last night. I had left over, wondering how safe it would be to spray the same stuff on my roses. would it help with the powdery mildew and aphids they get every year? I neem oil my roses every year, multiple times in the year as well.

This is great and I have a few questions
- did you mix the two applications in the sprayer?
- does the sprayer become used only for that or can you rinse and use with other items/plain water?
- do you apply this to your espalier pear and citrus?
- is neem harmful to pollinators?
