You didn't say where you are in zone 4a...in Massachusetts I never spray peaches. Many varieties come through perfect [Surecrop, Stark Early White Giant] some can't make it. Unless others in your area advise you otherwise, I'd just watch them this year without spray.

Having a few welcome but unexpected pea to marble sized peaches set on my young trees for the first time, I am unprepared and don't have a clue what to do with them. My preference would be for a no or low spray culture, but is that feasible ? We have hot humid weather from mid-July to mid-August and our big fruit growing problems are brown rot and plum curculio.
