Cooler year will delay harvest dates, LA = low acid type

5 Planting depth for peaches But make sure the roots are not planted too deep. The topmost roots should be close to the soil surface.

Put more bacterial spot resistant varieties on sandier site. Use sod strips between trees and to use gravel or other dust suppressing methods on nearby dirt roads.
