What to do this week on your Fruit and Veg Plot
Giving trees a winter wash helps to prevent disease and damage from sap-sucking pests such as rosy apple aphid. Their eggs overwinter on the tree, lodging in crevices in the bark and between branches, then the aphids appear in spring and summer. Trees were once routinely sprayed with a strong tar wash, but now these washes have been replaced with organic alternatives, based on plant oils. Use the spray on deciduous trees when they are dormant.

Winter tree care
Spraying any tree with a winter wash is a great way of reducing pest problems in the growing season. These plant oil-based products will kill off any overing wintering insects such as greenfly and red spidermite, as well as destroying their eggs. Some will also tackle moss and lichen - particularly good for trees with ornamental bark. Apply on a frost free day with low wind to prevent drift.
