Default Rain & Fruit Tree Spraying


It seems like it's been raining in central PA every other day. It was
like this last year, and I didn't bother to spray for coddling moth at
all, and every apple had a worm. This year I'm following the typical
schedule of spraying every 2 weeks.

I felt lucky to have the spray last 24 hours before the next rain.
What do commercial growers do in these conditions?

Certainly the rain must wash some / most of the spray off. How much
good does the spray do when it rains frequently?
