Greater than a light dose of Copper is toxic to the leaves, don't over do it. Some fruit and leaf drop is normal. My 10 peach trees are doing fine. How are your apples?

hi ace,
thanks for the advice, my baby apple tree looks
to be doing well. with some minor insect problems
just on the leaves.
i'm reluctant to try too much after what happened
with the peach, but in two weeks or so i will
thin out the small apples.
do you follow any programm as for spraying, and
can you tell me what you use?
incidently if you ever want a fig tree ,drop me a line
i have extra, i know more about figs and grapes.
but i'm dying to grow peaches with success , but i think
i over did it. in early spring i used dormant oil
afterwards copper sulfate, what did it i think was
the combination garden dust of rotenone and copper
which i applied as a dust.
i have friends with beautiful peaches that do absolutley
nothing.
i'm frustrated there are only two left on the tree.
well heres to next year.

marcantonio, I have also had some June drop after thinning young Peaches. Still lots of peaches and 0 insect, disease. Squirrels chewed up my Early Golden Apricots and took off branches. Air rifle and netting delivered a day late. :^(
