Preventive measures for citrus canker
Answers
Hey mate here is your answer:-
1. Prune flowering trees during blooming when wounds heal fastest.
2. Remove wilted or dead limbs well below infected areas.
3. Avoid pruning in early spring and fall when bacteria are most active.
4. Treat all pruning cuts immediately with Tanglefoot® Tree Pruning Sealer and make sure to disinfect your pruning equipment — one part bleach to 4 parts water — after each cut.
5. If using string trimmers around the base of trees avoid damaging bark with breathable Tree Wrap to prevent infection.
6. Brush bark with white latex paint diluted with water to reduce bark-damaging temperature fluctuations.
7.Research has shown that copper fungicides have some success against this stone fruit problem. However, results are inconsistent. We recommend using it as one part of a total management program.
8.Remove weeds and grass from around the base of young trees to improve air circulation and keep the trunk and crown dry.
9. Organocide Plant Doctor is an earth-friendly systemic fungicide that works its way through the entire plant to combat a large number of diseases on ornamentals, turf, fruit and more. Mix 1/3 to 3/4 oz per gallon of water and paint or spray over pruning wounds and surrounding areas.
