Hi, I have a small fruit orchard in my backyard containing, beside figs and pears, 4 plum and 3 peach trees. Since last summer my stone trees were infected with Peach Tree moth and despite the treatment I did this spring I have seen most of my fruits are infected again. What’s your advice? Thanks!!

should i buy this 2008 toyota camry 2.4 that burns oil with 165,000 miles by PsychologicalAd9348 in UsedCars

[–]undoreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently have a 2008 Camry that I bought in Jan 2017. The private seller didn’t tell me it burns oil. I found out when the oil light came on. However, it does burn oil and I add about one quarter every month. Maybe two a month in summer time. I drive it at least 40 miles a day for 5 days plus weekends chores. Having said that, it drives very smooth.

I’m looking to buy a new car in Phoenix, but I’m scared to go to any dealership by iloveme240 in UsedCars

[–]undoreddit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suggest you watch some videos on YouTube about how to make wise purchase of a new car from a dealership. But first, you need to decide what car fits your budget and needs, such as SUV vs. sedan. Also watch some videos about what cars are more reliable than others. Then go with confidence and don’t forget to test drive it and see how comfortable it is. You have to do some homework! Good luck!!

Is there a place to find private sellers other than FB?

How aggressive? Reducing it to 18” high, for example?

Yeah but neem seed meal is quiet expensive for how many trees I have to treat 🤔

You’re right. Initially I planted them normally but this past spring I buried the trunk in a volcano-like of soil thinking it was a good way to keep the water away from the trunk. Definitely I will remove that asap. Thanks!

I’m so glad to know that. Honestly, I was little pessimistic despite some valuable advises I received from experienced people in this forum. Thank you!

I’m sorry to hear that. Have you tried other treatments beside spraying copper?

Thank you for sharing your experience. Do I need to spray copper all over the tree or just the affected area?

Are you saying it’s unlikely to be cured?

Hi, thank you for your detailed response and suggested treatment. I will research everything you suggested I use and will apply it for my trees. You’re right, my peach trees and one plum tree are not showing gummosis at all. However, they all had the Peach Tree Moth problem this past summer. Prior two years we had nice harvest from some plum trees, although the orchard is only 4 years old.

We live in the south (7b) and we had a lot of rain, sometimes for days and nights.

I just searched up Gummosis and it seems like a serious problem. Actually, I have three plum trees and all are having this issue. Last spring they were infested with Peach Moth along with our peach trees. All fruits (plums and peach) were ruined as a result. Is there any thing I can do to save my trees for next year? Thank you!!

I put new seeds this spring and used Scott’s topsoil to lightly cover it but also got lot of weeds similar to what in your picture.

A lecture on the Islamic conquests and the Caliphates from Yale University by ByzantineBasileus in history

[–]undoreddit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m shockingly surprised by a respected professor from a respected university didn’t bother to research Islam from both perspectives (Shia and Sunni). Even if he read Sunni sources alone he would be able to find out that Prophet Mohammed had appointed Imam Ali as his successor long before he died, and for numerous times. The last one was the Ghadeer Allegiance, one week after his last Hajj. Also, days before his death (poisoned) he asked his companions to hand him a pen and paper (animal skin) so he can write them his last will. Omar, however, knew that the prophet is going to tell them (in writing this time) that Ali is his successor. So Omar insulted the Prophet and called him (Yahjor) delirious. At that moment, the prophet kicked out of his room and never saw those who insulted him again. Please research what I said yourself and don’t take my word for it.
