I Will also be picking up the following supplies for the 2008 season at the GVGO meeting:
- 2 1L bottles of pHortress plant health promoter - 2 1L jugs of molasses to really get those microbes going - 10L of Calcimax for a little extra Ca - 14# myco (1 lb around stump, 1 lb at nodes for 7 plants) - 150 lbs of humic acid (20 lbs around stump area per plant) - 100 lbs of kelp meal (14 lbs per plant around stump area)
I need to get some of the yellow whizzers from Joel Holland because the 4x increase in patch size will make a complete drip system a little too expensive (costed it out to about $750). If I didn't get the sprayer I could do it, but I think the sprayer is a better way to spend the money. It seems most have PM problems regardless of watering eventually. I will be spraying a 10% milk with water solution once a week, along with water only during the day so everything dries by evening. Further, I keep daconil handy for any outbreaks is needed. I will not be using system fungicides this year, only contact. I will however by using a systemic fungicide (merit) along with Bifenthrin for those pesky SVBs.
