spraying pesticides after rain?

[JayTrinity]

it rained really good and I woke up to apply nukem, a citrus based organic.

I ended up going back inside because the $$$$ and time involved.

The leaf is soaked so I can assume that will make spraying difficult and pointless?

 

[MrBungle]

maybe it'll dry out for an evening spray?

 

[JayTrinity]

yes it will but puts me behind schedule.

I hate spraying even organics, its lonely. 'im depressed also.
im tripping over 150 foot of hose.

I need to grow some balls, at 5am its I dunno

or perhaps I need some orange juice.

Dude, I have a horrible problem with foliar... something about touching wet leaves.. I only use organic pesticides too... my 2 favs are spinosad, with a wetting agent and Azatrol (alternating applications)... keeps the mites under control even in the hottest summer conditions in my grow

 

[JayTrinity]

how do you like Azatrol? thats azomax yes?

Iv had russet mites kept in check for years with that but I never knew I had them.
However they hatch and then the spray kills them all bad dead, then they hatch and then I spray.

I mean you cant kill off russets with organics on a tree.

I have a gallon of azo in my garage. it always burns some.

Do you have lick staving off russets with azo?

get a fogger....yeehaw..wait till leaves dry to spray

 

[JayTrinity]

thanks, ill do it tonight.

I have a paint sprayer with two wands. Its like a fogger but 15 gallon tank, 150 foot hose.
All I lack is a cup holder on my belt.

And nothing to lift for week sauce people like me.

Plus I can always get a job as a house painter !

I'm pretty happy with Azatrol it really works well in tandem with the spinosad/wetting agent... I'm pretty sure its close to the same as Azamax.. maybe slightly cheaper...

I don't believe I have russets ...my problem is with the 2 spotted mites and its usually worst when it gets warm, then dies down in the winter... (indoors)

the Azatrol does burn the leaves some I will say, but totally effective

Stoned trout. When you say fogger is that the same as one of those atomizer fog sprayers? If so I just ordered mine on amazon and she arrive yesterday. Thing is an awesome investment.

 

[JayTrinity]

i have the hudson and its really good. they wear out. when they stop working they are dying. get a new one. mine lasted 2 years.

 

[sacramental]

Jaytrinity, that's the one. 2 gal. Used it for the first time last night. Fuck them pump sprayers I'll never go back.

Got a little rain the other night/morning in Sonoma County the other day. I was tripping most of my plants have a month to go and are full and dense that got completley soaked but dried out that same night, my pops says to not worry about em. I have yet to apply anything for PM just as a preventive. Atomizer is a good fogger/sprayer i have a couple. one for BT solution one for insecticide spray like Azamax. I used and have a quart still of Nukem thats a insecticide/fungicide spray, I used it last year up to day of harvest
