AmeriBest Mist Sprayer Apple Tree Sprayers & Orchard Spraying
|
| Apple growers have found
a Mist Sprayer to be more efficient than any other spraying
method.
It is also much less expensive.
Because of
the versatile nature and
design of our Mist Sprayers, you can
spray through foliage, cover your trees from top to bottom in just one
pass! How? A Mist Sprayer uses air to deliver the active product to the target area while you control the direction of the spray. Our 1-way Vertical Volutes spray in a pattern that covers the complete tree. It blows through to cover all surface areas so you don't have to come back and spray the other side. The 2-way Orchard Volute sprays to each side of Mist Sprayer. It is fully adjustable for various heights and row widths by manipulating the veins inside the volute and the flaps on top of the volute to direct the air to the desired target area. 80% of the air comes directly off of the vein & flaps. You can even adjust the nozzles so that the spray pattern isn't hitting a vein or flap. Orchards have found
that
they can reduce fungicide application rates by 30-35% and insecticide
application rates by 10% while
retaining
effectiveness. In short, the Mist
Sprayer will provide you with the coverage you desire.

Common Apple Insect Pests
|
![]() Apple trees
are
susceptible to a
number of fungal and bacterial
diseases and insect
pests. Many commercial orchards pursue an aggressive program of
chemical sprays to maintain high fruit quality, tree health, and high
yields.
A
wide
range
of
pests
and
diseases
can
affect
the plant; the most common diseases/pests are:
Cedar-Apple
Rust & Hawthorn Rust: These fungi causes
brilliant
yellow-orange or reddish spots or lesions on apple leaves and
occasional lesions
on the calyx end of fruit. Deformity of the fruit and green stems may
also occur
Quince
Rust:
Symptoms
appear on apple fruit as dark-green lesions at the calyx end. These
lesions
cause puckering and distortion of the fruit and are brown and spongy
down to the
core.
![]() Foliar Feeding Foliar fertilization, a water soluble fertilizer that is sprayed on the foliage, may help small woody plants, especially plants that aren't getting enough iron. Foliar feeding of trees is becoming more popular and is often used to correct any micronutrient deficiencies. Iron chlorosis is one of the most common micronutrient deficiencies, due to typically high soil pH values. Iron can be added anytime during the growing season, as it does not stimulate excessive growth but corrects a chlorotic (leaf yellowing symptom) condition. A Michigan State College study has shown plants absorb nutrients not only through the roots, but also through the foliage, the fruit, the twigs, the trunk and even the flowers. Plants can absorb nutrients 8 to 10 times more efficiently through their leaf surfaces than through their roots. When applying nutrients to the leaf, the nutrients move through the stomata downward through the plant--at the rate of about a foot an hour. When applying nutrients to the leaves in soluble forms, as much as 95 percent of what is applied may be used by the plant. If a similar amount is applied to the soil about 10 percent of it is available. Foliar feeding is effective even on dormant plants and trees. |
