No Spray Apple List

I don’t think it will hurt anything, but I’m not convinced it is helpful long enough to make a difference for the effort to do it.

I’m of the opinion that providing generally favorable conditions like biodiversity, sufficient water, mulch etc will be more beneficial than proactive spraying. If all the other things are being done and compost tea is icing on the cake, then by all means knock yourself out.

I’d rather take time to add more mulch than mess with bubble tea but I could be convinced otherwise with good data.
