Can Daconil be mixed with foliar feeding regimen? - Page 2

bryanccfshr · February 25, 2008

After researching serenade I have decided the jury is still out on it's effectiveness9Much in the same league as compost teas as far as measurable results.

I usually spray my tomatoes often with foliar sprays of seaweed and sometimes I add Spinosad for chewing insect control.

I believe that foliar feeding has tangible observable benefits but I also know that as I continue to grow tomatoes in the same yard I will have to become proactive.

From a human hygiene point of view I am having no problem assessing Daconil as safe for me to use as well as not being harmful to the soil or wildlife. The Permethrin I use on fire ants is worse as is the many fungal spores I inhale when playing in my pile of rotten material (compost).

I am considering beginning a regimen of Daconil this year but I do not know how it will interact with my foliar feeding regimen. I would like to save a step and mix the Seaweed and the spinosad with the4 weekly Daconil applications.

Does anyone see any harm in this? Are any of these going to reduce the efficacy of the others?
