Hi.
I just bought a house with mature late blooming Peach trees.
I know these trees have not been organic for at least 3 years. The trees are older than 3 years.
I only know they have brown rot because I found some "mummies" hanging in the tree and on the ground.
There are other fruit trees on the property and I don't want this to spread.

Any suggestions on what to do would be appreciated.
Thank you very much!

Soak at least a cup of ordinary corn meal in a 5-gallon bucket overnight and spray the trees with the water. Then recycle the corn meal into your compost pile or apply it directly under your roses or on the lawn.
