We recorded another apple scab and cedar-apple rust infection period at our AREC May 23-24: 14 hours wetting with 0.8 inches of rain at 56-64°.
Disease management information directed mostly to the Frederick County Virginia tree fruit industry, updated as needed throughout the growing season. Keith Yoder, Virginia Tech Agricultural Research and Extension Center, Winchester, Virginia
