Thinning of the peach trees

I’m new to growing peaches. First year each tree only had 2-3 peaches.  Last year they were loaded but they all turned brown and wilted away. So I started spraying this year for fungus and bugs. Still one tree got the dreaded brown rot and lost all fruit. After some research looks like I needed to thin the peaches. Way too many and they can’t touch each other. Here are some pictures after thinning this week.

Still may have left too many, but we’ll see how they do.

Picked all my berries and peaches today

It was time to pick the first year of blueberries and peaches.  This is the whole crop.  Not bad for first year I guess.
