Re: fertilizing

Yes.

 At the minimum fish and seaweed emulsion at least once a week, preferably  in
the morning.  Foliar spray each once a week( at the latest) a couple hours
before sunset so it's dry before dark.  Fungicide and insecticide late
afternoon so it's dry before dark--sun on chemicals burns plants.

It can't rain ALL the time.

Do your best, hope for the best.  Sometimes the weather wins in spite of all
you do.

Many people construct greenhouses to beat the weather--most of us can't afford
that luxury.

Good luck.

I was wondering if you can fertilize if there has been alot of rain.  I
haven't fertilized in a couple of weeks since we have been getting rain almost
every day and more is expected over the next 4 days.  I think they could use
some fert. but it is so darn wet.  Also what should I do my fungicide and
insecticide program with all of the rain?
