Anyone do any research out there if it is ok to spray your fungicide program and/or insect program when pollinating the next day. Does it effect the fruit. Are there more aborts? I do not want to stress the plants when I am going to pollinate within the week.

Ray,

I would obviously keep spray material & any other moisture out of the intended flowers. But I doubt that a correct foliar treatment made the night before would have any impact at all. Botching the rate & temperature guidelines would cause stress to any plant & probably have devastating results I suppose.

Don't forget to follow the chemical re-entry requirements

as long as the ingredients are compatable there is no problem if applied at the rate suggested
do as steve suggested though, bag the females and males you intend to use the next morning
