MORE RAIN!! I shoulda planted in a trough with pontoons on it! lol

With all this rain I wonder, do I need to start using fungicide now? I have some daconil ready and waiting.

I buried secondarys at lunch today. I say buried but covered is a more accurate description. I hope the rain doesnt wash away the soil. Do I remove the skewers and plastic hangers as I go or just bury around them?

The leaves are not as green as they should be (at least from my uneducated eye) The leaves closer to the stump are greener and get less green toward the growing tip. Im not sure if it needs fert. or if the color change is related to the over abundance of rain we've had.

How the heck do I get rid of ants?!?! Bayer T&S didnt kill them and Cyonara didnt kill them. Maybe I have super ants that just wont die. The joke about how only cockroaches could survivor a nuclear bomb, I fully believe these ants would live and keep the roaches company! Its been over a week since I sprayed insecticide, should I spray again? Can I mix Cyonara and Bayer T&S and do both at the same time? For that matter could I toss in some Daconil too?

Ok thats probably too many inquiries for one post but thats how my mind rambles LOL
