We sprayed the other half the orchard with our combination of Surround clay powder, Dipel (BT), liquid Kelp, liquid Fish, and “EM1” (effective microbes). I’m happy to see the fruitlets growing among the leaves, on trees throughout the orchards.

Although yesterday I found Fire Blight in one area, today I found almost none. My “scientifically observational guess” is that the bacterium had been present in some sections of the orchard while not in others. In the next few days we’ll cut out all the strikes (infected branches) we can find and hopefully nip a potential mess in the bud!
