The combination of cool and wet slows germination, slows vigorous growth, increases risk of fungal seed rot and of seedling disease.<br>Weather and soil conditions should be factored into the equation when selecting the exact planting date. Also, planting date DOES impact risk to diseases other than seedling disease. Following Peanut Rx, planting date impacts risk to tomato spotted wilt, leaf spot, and white mold. Planting date in corn impacts risk to southern rust and tar spot (earlier planted corn is at lower risk). Earlier planting dates seem to reduce risk to \u201cCLRDV induced bronze wilt\u201d in cotton. Earlier planting dates reduce risk to soybean rust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Soil Temperatures from UGA weather station Tifton-Bowen !!
