I think I have made one of those mistakes in life that teaches you a lesson. I have 3 apple trees: a 20 year old golden delicious, a 8 year old red delicious and and 6 year old Johnathan. I haven't had the time in past years to spray them often enough and the codling moths have taken over. So using Bonide fruit tree spay I sprayed them a couple weeks ago. They are in full bloom now and what I read about codling moths advised to spray them before petal drop. So I sprayed them today. The larger golden delicious doesn't seem to be affected so much but the 2 smaller trees almost immediatley turned the blossoms brown. And they were really beautiful before I sprayed. Spayed too much? Don't spray when in blossom? I'm ready to take my lumps.....
