breaks<-c(0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40,42,44)
hist(app_depths,breaks,freq=FALSE,main="LARV Irrigation Application Depths
(in) 2004-2007",xlab="Application Depth
(in)",col="grey")
plot(function(app_depths)
dlnorm(app_depths,meanlog=mean(app_depths),sdlog=sd(app_depths)),0,44,add=TRUE,col="black",lwd=3)

Problem is, I get a plot that doesn't look right,

http://n4.nabble.com/file/n998495/Image3.png 
 
If there is an obvious error as to why the pdf line doesn't fit the data,
I'm unable to find it.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Respectfully,
Eric

Don't you need meanlog=mean(log()), etc?
I usually use curve():

hist(app_depths,breaks,freq=FALSE)
curve(dlnorm(x, meanlog=mean(log(app_depths)),
    sdlog=sd(log(app_depths))), add=TRUE, col=1, lwd=3)
