Peanuts nearly 90 days old; temperature near 90F, lower canopy still very wet at 1:00 PM. Perfect conditions for leaf spot, Rhizoctonia limb rot, and southern blight/white mold. Scout your fields and stay on a good fungicide program. Tift Co, Georgia. UGA Extension.

Dr. Dog approves of peanut butter production @kumar_rowcrops

[Bob Kemerait @bobkemerait]

80-day-old peanuts and active white mold in SE GA. Grower needs to shut this down. Recipe: excellent fungicide + effective rate + good spray volume + timely rain or irrigation to move fungicide through canopy. I’m not trying to spend your money. I am trying to save your crop.
