peach spots


Question
Peach tree disease
Peach tree disease
What are the spots on these peaches.                                                                                                                                                    thanks

Answer
The spots appear to be peach scab.  I have already sent a few links for information about controlling this disease.   Below is one more.  It shows a picture almost identical to the one you have submitted.  Peach scab is a serious disease of peaches and it is almost impossible to completely control without chemicals.  I suspect that you are too close to harvest to implement chemical applications this year.  If you review the link, it will give you tips on how to prepare for next season and when to begin spraying.
