Same here, as we are about an hour south of Syracuse, where winds, hail,
and other elements damaged and ripped the land. A few people were killed
also. I got hit with some of that storm, but thankfully not as bad. A
few rolled secondaries, some leaves with hail damage, but that is it.
If I were you, I would stay away from the fertilizer this time of year,
as the shell is hardening, and you might do the blow up thing..
