Abstract

Abstract Treatments were applied to randomized 2 acre plots. One 0.5 acre plot was left untreated. The trees were top worked Valencia mostly in the 5 to 7 ft height range with some in the 12-15 ft range. The temperature during spraying was from 79° to 87°F and the RH was 87% to 74%. The winds were less than 4 mph and there was no rain during or immediately after application. Treatments were applied with an Air-O-Fan pto airblast sprayer on 1 Aug in 250 gal/acre. The spray water pH was 8.3. All treatments included 2 lbs/A metallic copper for greasy spot control. Twenty-five fruit were examined around the canopy of 2 randomly selected trees in each of 4 subplots for a total of 8 trees/treatment. A 1 cm2 area was examined on each of 2 shaded sides/fruit. The 2 fruit counts were combined, averaged, and recorded as one observation.
