Won't be much longer now, peaches are starting to break bud. I would spray them but is windy, expect freeze overnight and FB tells me rain starting Tuesday. Rain on and off until Saturday. Instead tank and I are going to prune a little, mainly remove crossed banches.

Tank and I did some peach tree pruning mostly minor. But I did remove an entire branch where every stem crossed another. It's a loring the tree will do better with that branch gone. I was able to collect more scion wood so that's a plus. While we were pruning the wind died down. So I went ahead and sprayed peach trees with organic liquid copper fungicide. I needed to get rid of the bottle anyways but there was still some left in the bottle so I went ahead and sprayed the apricots also.

Today is March 2nd, last year March 6th I had peaches starting to popcorn. If I had to guess, I would say we are about a week or so behind last year. I'll know forsure when the peaches start to popcorn.
