discovered a nice approach for spraying tonight by accident. i sprayed demand cs and fulvic acid with the stihl fogger dropping the barrel below every row of secondaries from the outside in and also from behind the stump area to the center of the plant under the leaf canopy and up and down behind the plant shooting in and under. this gives great total coverage on all stalks vines and under side of leaves and this is my normal procedure to use 4 gallons total for the underside of all 3 plants or 1.3 gallons per underside of each plant at fine droplet setting. i up the dosage a bit for the underside of these more mature leaves gettting hit. then i ran out of gas when i began to do the top coverage. i was going to wait until tomorrow night but then thought it is gonna be hotter tomorrow night and the dog was going crazy from the fireworks, so i used the back pack pump sprayer for top coverage and liesurely sprayed for 45 minutes to the sound of fireworks, my dog barking like mad in the house, and looking up at all the beauty. God Bless America! and i figured while the stomata are wide open and i was spraying to the light of the garage flood light and corner street light at 9:30, why not, not throw in a light dose of 3-18-18 as i am just hitting the top of the plants where less stomata and this will be a nice way to slowly start the foliar fert program. from here out i will be using a light does of 3 18 18, fulvic acid when weekly spraying and up the the full dose of 3 18 18 in 2 weeks. fungicide will go in the mix next weekend. drench program of neptunes seaweed and fish, humic acid, and light 3 18 18 will begin on wed. and will be every wed. this week i will use the back pack pump sprayer for application of actinovate, biota max, and thrive and do this every 2 weeks the rest of the season on the underside of the the plants and soil. under 90 days til the weigh off. lol.
