South Yorkshire, United Kingdom

Hi everyone - back to the plum tree! We did not cut the top off and the dead wood does not appear to have moved further down the tree.
We do have some fruit on, but not very big yet. Now, though, there appears to be grey mould on the end of some of the branches. Can anyone advise us what to do about this, do we cut off now or leave it altogether, or wait until the end of the season. Hope someone knows better than us. Regards Muddyshoes.
