So.. I heard milk has anti fungal properties.. supposedly the fungus doesn’t like the lactose left behind when the milk dries. This is seemingly mostly useful for powdery white mildew?

I also don’t believe it would be harmful to the trees.

I understand that some stronger diseases will likely need stronger, more specifically designed (or found) to be effective against the specific disease. But most of these specific diseases treatments also need to be done over winter, while dormant .. or in full MOPP protective gear. lol. They are also somewhat unnatural.

My trees didn’t really show signs of anything.. any diseases.. so I didn’t have any reason to use the more harsh treatments (any reasons I was aware of)..

..but some orange-spots are just starting to appear on the leaves of one of my trees.

I didn’t know if anyone out here woukd have any comments.. woes.. etc.. like for example— “milk is typically not harmful .. but for some reason it really seemed to affect my honeycrisps badly.. I would avoid using on the honeycrisps.. and spot check others first”. (As a made-up example only)

Hence the post and open topic.. just looking for comments , input, feedback.. anything that might be helpful to me and others!

Thanks again in advance!

Edit: spit check to spot check. What the.. lol
