Dry branches durian tree caused by leaf hoppers

Is this leaf hopper issue?

Yes, this is a leaf hopper issue. It is recommended to use Mr Ganick Ultimite Concentrate in rotation, combined with Mr Ganick Organic Nitro+ (40ml per 20L of water). This approach effectively controls pests while promoting the growth of new, healthy leaves.

Suggested treatment steps:

1. Prune affected branches and leaves:

  • Remove dried branches and severely damaged leaves to prevent further spread and create space for new growth, aiding the plant’s recovery.

2. Spray a mixture of Mr Ganick Ultimite Concentrate and Mr Ganick Organic Nitro+:

  • This combination not only kills leaf hopper but also promotes quick leaf regeneration through amino acids.
  • Frequency: Spray once every 7 days for 2-3 applications. Assess results to decide if further treatment is needed.
  • Ensure thorough coverage of both sides of the leaves and the branches, especially in pest-infested areas, to enhance effectiveness.

3. Preventive measures after recovery:

  • Once the plant is healthy, spray preventively 1-2 times a month to maintain protection and prevent future infestations.
