Hello all,
A Connecticut grower brought me an apple and a piece of apple bark that
appear to have overwintering (orange form) two-spotted spider mites. The
clusters of orange mites are in the calyx end of the Melrose apple and
on the underside of the piece of bark (also from a Melrose tree) tak
Hi,
They are definitely not European red mites. They are distinctly orange,
not red. By November, I would expect that European red mites would be
in their overwintering egg stage. Also, I'm not sure what affect oil

Hello All,
I have a few Spectrum machines and have seen the discrepancies between the

A grower in Connecticut wants to use Abound (azoxystrobin), or Quilt Xcel
(azoxystrobin plus propiconazole) for control of Boytryosphaeria on black
