GUARDIAN FOR ORCHARDS

(4 customer reviews)

$39.95

Recent research at Cornell University has confirmed that biological control of plum curculio with certain strains of beneficial nematodes is viable and quite effective. These parasitic nematodes are microscopic worms which occur naturally in soils all around the world. When you apply them (by spraying the ground) they seek out the curculio larvae (which pupate in the soil around the base of the fruit tree,) and feed on them. Whiffletree has partnered with Natural Insect Control to make a blend of the most effective strains of nematodes available to the homeowner. This product is easy to use and detailed instructions are included. Two applications are recommended-on or about July 1 and July 15. It should be applied out to the dripline of the affected trees.

What is Orchard Grade?

An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.

What is a 2 year old tree?

A '2 year old tree' is one that has grown an extra season in our nursery field.

All our trees are planted in the field in the spring as rootstock. They are grafted in August of the 1st year. Most of our trees are dug out in November of the 2nd year. Some trees are in the ground for another season. We dig these in November of the 3rd year. These are considered to be '2 year old trees'.

A '2 year old tree' has bigger roots, a thicker trunk, and more branching (They might start fruiting a year earlier).
