Can I mix (in one tank) 20-20-20 fert, fish and seaweed fert, daconil and spray them all together? Or do I need to spray fert let it dry and then spray fungicide?

I don't know. But a good idea would be to alternate. give em some fish and seaweed one day. let em rest. maybe give them some daconil another day (whatever it is, only if you need it for pest/ disease and things). And 202020 fert. a couple days later if thats what your using early. Mix it all to factory specs or lighter and go easy.

normally Id wait at least a day between sprayings but its rained here practically everyday and the weatherman says more rain tomorrow. Im just trying to slip in some fertilizer and fungicide between showers.

I ended up mixing the 20-20-20 with the fish/seaweed sprayed that on, waited about an hour then sprayed the fungicide Daconil. I hope it'll be ok.

I am only a second year grower, but I always spray fungicides before fertilizers on turf because fungus feeds on N.

Check the labels for compatibility issues first. Then do a jar test shake and let sit overnight. Observe tomorrow. Lastly, spray it on an unimportant plant, side or tertiary. If it still looks good 3 days later your OK.

For the record we tank mix chelated calcium with bifenthrin or imidacloprid and bifenthrin regularly.

I hope that it works out for you Tammy. We are getting a lot of rain over here this spring too. Good luck this year. Ryan
