Well the monsoon season has left Ohio ( for now) & I'm wanting to get a application of Scimitar & Daconil on as soon as possible. Is there any real harm with tank mixing these 2 chemicals?

I do it once a week. These two are compatible. Since both are flowables, the order in which they are mixed is of no consequence. I use different measuring syringes so as to not cross contaminate the bottles though.

When combining chemicals that are not exactly the same formulation, follow these rules:

Tank Mix Order Priority

1.) First half of tank water
2.) DG's & DF's (dispersible granules & dry flowables)
3.) WP's (wettable powders)
4.) Flowables (really just WP's with water & emulsifiers)
5.) Iron or other Micronutruents
6.) EC's (emulsifiable concentrates)
7.) Solutions
8.) NPK Fertilizers
9.) Surfactants
10.) Spray Dye Indicators
11.) Balance of water

Always read the entire label for indications of imcompatiblity with other chemicals. When in doubt, make a small batch in a jar. Shake it all up. Wait a little while to see what happens. Small amounts of settling are probably OK. But solid precipitates or jello are not cool & would indicate an incompatible mix.
