Potash Wash For Fruit Trees Barks In Spring Care
A historical guide describes potash washes and soap washes to treat fruit tree trunks and branches. It advises dissolving a pound of potash in two gallons of water for spring applications to remove loose bark, smooth the trunk, and deter insects, with soap washes as a milder alternative. It notes a stronger soap mix can strip moss and dead bark, while a ferric wash of soda ash removes rough surfaces and revitalizes older trees. For young trees use a weaker potash solution.
