The first primary scab lesions appeared on Friday, May 7, on unsprayed trees at the Hudson Valley Lab. These lesions resulted from the infection period of April 22-23. Additional scab infection periods occurred May 3-4 (12 hr, 53°F, 0.1 inch rain) and May 8-9 (33 hr, 59°F, 0.25 inch rain). Spotty showers occurred throughout the Hudson Valley last week. Some areas received more than an inch of rain, but drought conditions still prevail in much of the lower Hudson Valley. At the Hudson Valley Lab, total accumulated rainfall since April 1 is only 1.4 inches, and soil water reserves were relatively low at the beginning of April. The supply of apple scab ascospores is usually depleted by about petal fall, but some later discharges are likely this year because drought conditions have delayed both spore discharge and disintegration of the overwintering leaves on the orchard floor.
