I had leaf curl on my peach and nectarine trees after using the disease control pack prior to analysing my application procedure. Now I know I was not covering the bud scales efficiently. My trees are open vase and wine glass pruned, so I need to spray not only from the outside of the trees but also from the inside of the open vase area in order to cover all 360ᵒ of the bud scale. Once I conducted my monthly spraying regime in this fashion, the curl was reduced by 90%.

Fantastic series & family. Really made me smile. BTW: With vinegar having a PH of 2 -3 (very acidic) you can easily see how the burning could happen.
Vinegar, salt only good for weeds (and chips)
I've given up my nectarine tree 4th year no fruit and leaf curl ripped it out, apricot going well though
