The recommended cycle of of applying Atomic Grow 3 weeks in a row then every other week was interrupted which I thought might have an impact on the results. Having said that I don't think that following the recommended cycle for the entire growing season has anything to do with burned leaves and dead plants. It seems that those issues happen after initial spraying.

At the time I suspended application of both my regular foliar fertilizer and Atomic Grow I could see no discernible difference.

The fungal disease was exasperated in roughly half of my garden by the use of aspirin as a fungicide. I will be doing a full report on that. Basically it didn't go well. I'm sticking with copper and Serenade going forward.
