I've never seen those mites here, and I'm only aware of them vicariously, What I've read is that they seldom kill a tree. If you remove too many leaves that isn't going to be good either. I just zoomed in and looked at your picture closer. My recommendation would be to leave it alone unless it...

Looks like blister mite. If the tree is small, the best thing to do is remove the affected leaves and burn them. If you had a strong magnifying glass you could probably see the mites.

Two crops at the same time.

Plant Miller and Deer Magnet. They will cover October and November for you in KY.

Unfortunately, my Black Oxford went down in the severe storm we had two years ago. I tried setting it back up and bracing it, but with the heat of the hot summer and drought it didn't survive. Since that time I have only planted some Blue Hill trees and haven't replaced it. Perhaps in the...

That’s sad, and I hear that same thing from several people.

I sometimes wonder how we have any turkeys. We don’t have very many here like we used to.

That's a good looking Job. I'm also planting and caging RODs now. My intent is to get them established well in the cages and then move the cages to new locations. If the birds will help, that will be good too. The birds single handedly have got arrowwood virbunums planted everywhere for me...

I was walking by one of my native female persimmons recently and noticed two nice root sprouts about knee high coming out of the ground about 10 feet out from the main tree. I took a shovel and dug both sprouts with big root balls and transplanted them to new locations. I had a cage handy for...

I tried looking on gun broker for you but didn't see much. There were only two, and they had rifled barrels.

Somebody thought so,

Good luck
