My understanding is that rampant growth means increased risk of FB. Healthy
balanced growth that you get from compost might be somewhat less susceptible;
I don't know. Muffy BarrettSouthern WI, where the flower buds are swollen
already on the apples and pears, and the kiwis have started growing.
Normally we have frosts well into May here....

From: Steven Covacci


If I plant pears in my garden bed (where I always add compost and uncomposted
fruit/vegatable scraps), and is always moist in spring and fall, will the
conditions promote fire-blight in the pear trees?
No synthetic fertilizers, etc.
Thanks,
Steve

I have used the 2 dollar grafting tape for a few years now.

One roll goes a long way.
