This was a wasted day

[skeets]

The NWS said no rain light wind sunny with some clouds,,, WONDERFUL ,,, I get the sprayer out and the 41% stuff and I started spraying, everything that didnt move about 3 hours worth I was rather happy, got the poison ivy and poison oak and sumac all that good stuff !!!! The sky was blue and clear and I came in showered came up and it was a bit over cast. But hey the NWS said no rain for the next couple days... LYING basturds ,,,, High winds several trees down not the ones I would like to come down, heavy rain, I dont even want to go in the cellar and hail the size of dimes! The tomatoes are shredded the potatoes are the same, and the wife's 7 sister rose bush looks like the flowers were sheared off. And 3 hours worth of spraying and weed killer wasted,,, AAAAUGHHHHHHHHHHHH

None here. Dryer than a popcorn fart. It is cloudy though.

Skeets, you might be surprised what that spray takes out. Ortho says on the container, " Hose-End Sprayer or any other tank sprayer, and it is rainproof two hours after application!"

skeets i use the same stuff..... if you got at least 2hrs of dry time on it? you probably be ok...

if not? YEP you washed your money away.

if it makes you feel better? it happens to me at least once a year with spraying.

Sorry about your garden, hope the plants bounce back. You can spray the poison ivy again, but it is hard to get tomatoes going again.

Your 41% stuff probably had time to do it's job. You should be

Well that makes me feel better I think I am going to have field, and call all the kids and grand kids in,, the straight line wind sure make a mess down over the hill. I should get enough fire wood out of this stuff for a few days

Sorry to hear about all the damage Skeets. We are burning up here and really need rain but the thunderstorms keep going around us.

Skeets if it dried on the leaves I bet you will be fine, some of the larger vegetation you may have to respray but any of the grass and younger stuff may start to yellow in a few days.

One good thing is the 41% is not that expensive at least here at TS runs less than $ 50.00 for 2.5 gallons. I mix my rate at 1.5 ounces to the gallon with good luck.

The garden tuff one there, sorry about that mine was dry as a bone until last week now you can't hardly walk in it so wet.

Watched water run across my front yard Friday night, near 3" of rain in a few hours.

Best of luck.
