Apple trees

[Stephenw]

Any one know about spraying apple trees that have blight? I have a few trees and I spray to prevent blight but what can you spray on a tree that has blight and prone to it?

Help much appreciated.

prune mildly infected branches back to healthy wood.(sterilize your tool in 3 parts vinegar to one part water) to stop spreading, any stems with more than 50 percent damage should be cut and destroyed. work in dry conditions and try a natural mineral copper sray (e g BONDIE LIQUID COPPER SPRAY0SAFE TO SPRAY WHEN DORMANT AND SAFE ON BLOSSOM AND FRUIT
