hit the plants solid with quilt fungicide tonight. heavier droplets too and 10 gallons mix total for the 3 plants over and under heavy. the 1147 got only 3-18-18 thrown in but the other 2 got some 0-0-25 medium strength dose up from light strength dose. and again grandma enggy's fulvic acid to round out the cocktail. love the fulvic foliar. next spray in 5 days will be eagle and some stylet oil mixed in to hit the pm from a different angle. there are some really stubborn pm strains out there i have been reading about and some are getting very tolerant to everything on the market. after closer inspection i found it on 5 leaves today. that means the sysptoms are just showing and its already been here. i haven't missed a week of spray yet this year except a month ago when i held off due to high heat at night until 12 days between cylcles when the weather broke. last year it arrived on july 28th. propbably same day here about and i just spotted it today. not surprising with the year we have had weather wise. controlling it and slowing it down is the key. the quilt is supposed to knock it dead in its tracks as curative and systemic so i feel good about the battle ahead with the arsenal i got of quilt, quadris, eagle, cleary's and stylet oil. the quilt will be done every 10 days and the other brands thrown in mixed with stylet oil in between at 5 days and rotated.
