We were able to get a fertilizing on our coastal just before we got a rain two weeks ago. Got .9 the day we fertilized and another 3.6 the next day.
It was so humid the fertilizer was sticking to the drive chain from the hopper to the throwers on the buggy. Had a swath about 8 inches wide that wasn't hitting the throwers and was dropping in almost a solid stream. I was concerned it was too heavy and would burn the coastal.
When we checked the field last weekend found we had very dark streaks where the solid stream fell. While it looks odd, I was relieved it didn't burn.
We hope to get the second cutting next Wed. but won't know for sure until we check it this w/e.
Will take some pics and post next week.
