I hope everyone had a good 4th and got to see some fireworks. I’ve been at Rock Eagle all week for 4H Senior Camp, but I have a few reminders for you.
Peanuts: Hot days, warm nights, and high humidity are perfect for white mold. White mold is in some surrounding counties, so it will probably start rearing its head here in Tift. Not the time to be timid with disease management. Leaf spot is less of a threat under very hot and dry conditions.
Cotton: First week of bloom is time to start looking for target spot. I hope it will be less common this year with this dry weather.
