Peaches problem

[SteveB[_11_]]

My peach tree, I just noticed, has clear hard oozing sap coming from the
peaches. Lots of them. Not a good crop this year. What is this, and what
do I do?

Oh, goody! Now there's no need for newsgroups. And all the people who
answer a question with a lame weak retort that has nothing to offer in the
way of help.

I hope it's not cancer, herpes, halitosis, gangrene, syphilis, or pink eye.

BTW, I did google peach borer, and all I got was pictures of larva, and
nothing that looks like my problem. Google is useful. Plain answers from
real live people are nice, too. BTW, in my Peach Borer search were included
peach cobbler, Miss Peach Pageant, Little Miss Peach Pageant, Junior Little
Miss Peach Pageant, Gay Peach Pageant, well, you get the idea.

Give some useful information. Sheesh.

Why didn't you just say you knew nothing about the question being asked?

Steve,

Some of the pests that can cause this kind of oozing from the peaches
are Oriental Fruit moths or plant bugs and stink bugs.

You should see some kind of debris at the site from the insect boring
in. If this is your problem, clean up all damaged fruit and find a
way to kill the bugs.

Check this web site for more details:

http://www.hgic.umd.edu/_media/documents/hg77.pdf


By far, the most common problem of this type with peaches is not the
fruit, but the trunk and branches having a problem of Gummosis.

We tried to grow peaches here. The black 5/8 moths Peach borers made
it impossible. I guess this due to peach and apple commercial orchards
within 6 miles. This 35 years ago.
For some reason I think you will not show up on my machine.

OK, now if you 2 roosters would stop circling. Both of you seem to be on
the side of the angels, the true, the good, and the beautiful. The
response, in error, was made against one of the lowest forms of
degradation, which, justifiably, should illicit a strong response.
Gentlemen, it was a fair misunderstanding, apologies made, no harm done.
Let's move on.

Boy! You must really be sore about that reply of mine to you the
other day to call THAT a "fair misunderstanding." Hm! I guess if
anyone around here should get an apology, it's YOU from me.

But, okay, moving right along . . .

I come to discover as of today that the terraces we dug into the
hillside below the garden for squashes and cucumbers are NOT going to
work without a much greater depth of soil. The sun beats down on them
mercilessly, so that no matter how often I water them, the leaves
still wilt miserably beneath that sun. We arrive at the conclusion
that with such rocky soil so close to the surface, the heat retention
from that stony ground is just cooking those poor plants to death, and
evaporating the water nearly so soon as we put it in. Next spring
we'll provide a much greater depth of soil, see how that works.

Where or where is a good, friendly, talkative Inca peasant farmer from
Machu Pichu when you need one? Maybe we should try Twitter/Peru?

At the risk of being accused of telling you what to do, if you look in a
halfway decent ditionary you will find that "Correct" is quite OK in the
context in which it was used.

Yeah. OTT and vengeful.

I'm all for that. Does anyone have any answers as to what's up with my
peaches?

I don't but it sounds like the same thing that got my peaches each
year before the tree finally died of old age. (I say my peaches, they
were really the groundhog's.)

"I don't mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through other people's eyes
Some will die in hot pursuit
In fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain"

Given that I, like Charlie, thought that your diatribe revealed your
character, of course I realise that posting was futile.

However since you were also unfair, you needed to be told.

You are, as I said before OTT and vengeful.

Having done a quick perusal of his web site he doesn't, at first blush,
seem at odds with the good the true and the beautiful, but I must concur
that he seems rash, inflexible, and given to poor choices. All I was
trying to do is point out that the world is a stage and in our turn, we
all get to play the sage and the dolt, and the friend and the scoundrel.
To err is human, to forgive is divine, to break is to buy.

As far as I know he is new here, and I would give him the benefit of the
doubt for awhile, as I tried to do with Shelly, earlier this year.

This will sort itself out in time.
Peace.

And you keep on giving us an insight into your character. Keep it up, as
it's quite a spectacle.

type peach borer into Google and then at top click on "images" it will show the sap
oozing out of the trees. Ingrid

Probably something (an insect) that likes peaches. Takes a bite and moves on
to another one. Ever try tanglefoot at the lowest part of the trunk to keep
them away from your peaches? Unless it is a flying beetle then you'll just
have to share some of the sap with them. I bet you'll just have a few bumps
in the ripened peaches.
