I have a copper based fungicide, and a sulfur based fungicide. Both
claim
to
be the definitive cure for peach leaf curl. Does anyone know which
works
better, or if both are equally effective? Last year my peaches had
peach
leaf curl quite severly. I'd like to prevent it from happening this
year.



Copper works for me.

Show me some pictures of your trees and the pruning cuts. Plus the root
zone.



Why?

David

Because I could better diagnose your real problem. Why not?


Why not? Because I know peach leaf curl when I see it. But that's me, I
cannot say if the OP can but he asked how to treat it.

I think sometimes you are really trying to help. But when you go on with your
pet subjects to the exclsion of all else you are just trying. To a kid with a
hammer everything is a nail.
