You must be one of the more fortunate ones in
NY. I know resistance has been an issue there. We usually end up
doing a maximum of four sprays and can get by some seasons with only
three. From 2003 to 2007 we got by with only three and never had scab, but
in '08 we had a horrible scab year and had to do the fourth. With the
amount of inoculum in the orchard now, I have been keeping it at four. The
summer spray is more for sooty blotch, fly spec than anything else. CAR is
no problem for us at all. We Have never had an incidence of it in any of
the orchards.
