Gummosis

11/11/2015

Gummosis. O.K. you say it now, Gummosis.  Bet you don't know whether to chew on it or spit it out! Gummosis is a funny word isn't it.  But, it's no so funny when it gets on your plants.  
​Gummosis is that sappy, gewy looking stuff that oozes out of the bark of many fruit trees, maples, birches and citrus. 

When gummosis strikes a plant it's actually telling you one of many things is going on with your plant.  For instance, it may be telling you that your apple has a tree borer.  It may be saying that peach is under too much stress from lack of water or too much water. 

Gummosis can also be an indication that a condition called flux is coming on and prepare for a viral problem.  Or, Gummosis on a plant is no more than a cleaning process or purging of the soil, if you may. 

​In any case, when your plants ooze with Gummosis take heed to what it is trying to tell you.
