I have read the booklets attached to both my insecticides and fungicides and have the application rates, etc...; however none specify when they are rain fast.

Right now, I am applying liquid Sevin and Daconil. One of the other fungicides says to reapply, if it rains 30 minutes or less after application.

How long does everyone wait to water, after applying their fungicides and insecticides? With all this heat and full sun, I am trying to coordinate my timing, so I am not burning plants or missing a chance to water.

Thanks for the advice.

I'm no expert, but what I do is skip watering for that day. For example, this evening I sprayed my plants. Tomorrow morning I will resume watering. I spray once a week.

Thanks for the input. That is what I was doing too.
