    Didn't work with cherry fruit fly

    By Yugin on 03/13/2014

    I tried it last year with cherry fruit fly control as per label but in the end all crop went to waste. Maybe upping 1.5X dosage will help but I will be looking for different product this year.

    terrific saving pumpkins

    By Jim on 07/17/2014

    for three years cucumber beetles, powdery mildew & mites destroyed my pumpkins. I've been hesitant to be chemically aggressive. this year my pumpkin leaves began being eaten alive until I began using this product once per week. GREAT results so far although it's only mid-summer. I like that it says harvesting day of spraying is fine.

    Brown Rot on Peaches

    By Donna on 11/13/2014

    I used it three years in a row and it did nothing for my peaches for brown rot. I had beautiful foliage but rotten peaches. I tried taking them off early but that didn't help and finally cut them down this fall.

    Fruit Tree Spray Review

    By Hoshi on 05/17/2020

    Used The Fruit tree spray on my apple and peach tree as per the instructions. Worked well to keep the insects away. Did two applications. Excellent results keeping insects away. Would definitely recommend use of a mask during preparation diluting the concentrate and spraying as it has a distinct pesticide/chemical smell.

Q
Can I spray Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate to peaches, plums, etc in October in the state of New Jersey?
A

Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate is not labeled to be used on plum trees. It is labeled to protect peach trees from listed insects and disease so you would want to apply before they become an issue.  Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate is mixed at 1.5 to 2.5 tbs. per gallon of water for application to peach trees. After you apply the Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate it will kill for up to 1 week. If insects or disease is still present, you can apply a 2nd time. Bonide recommends alternating insecticides when treating to help prevent resistance to active ingredients. You could alternate with a product such as Fertilome Triple Action
