My first effort at no spray peaches 10 miles outside of Philadelphia. This is the first harvest from a single, seed-grown tree about 5 years into the project.
I had some issues with peach leaf curl early in the season but otherwise (knock on wood) was fortunate. In the last two days the birds decided they were ready, so I picked them to finish ripening inside so I wouldn’t lose more. Was concerned after this Spring’s cold snap, and hand pollinated flowers; in the end, got a great set and thinned heavily. Size is good (might have been better if I had thinned more) and the first ripe ones taste wonderful!
