Warm Apple Trees: Common pharmacy spray fights rot

Warm summer temperatures combined with high humidity create an ideal environment for fungal spores that cause fruit rot in apple and pear trees. This infection can spread through a canopy within days, turning firm fruits into a soft brown mass. To prevent significant crop loss, gardeners can use a targeted protective spray based on common pharmacy products to maintain fruit integrity until harvest. Protecting Fruit Trees with Aspirin and Ammonia This method serves as a preventative measure or a supplement to primary garden protection. It is not intended as a standalone cure for trees already experiencing mass infection; in such cases, the solution should be used only alongside professional fungicides after removing diseased fruits. Preparing and Applying the Protective Solution A combined treatment using acetylsalicylic acid and ammonia to stimulate plant immunity and alter surface acidity.
