Kaolin re-applied after yesterday's today's rain -- and mixed up a new batch / new spray bottle

Even with all of yesterday's and today's rain, there was still some kaolin left on the leaves.  But I didn't want to risk anything, so applied a good new coating today to all the exposed zucchini/rondes and the cucumbers.  Applied some around 4pm, the rest at 6pm, so sun burn shouldn't be an issue.

The old spray bottle (noname window cleaner bottle) clogged up, which might have been because the kaolin was the first batch which started in a pail into which some plants were dunked and bits of soil mixed into it.  So, mixed up a new batch in the dollar store clear spray bottle:  3 cups water to scant 1/2 cup kaolin.
