@@otrotland5377 when I had a 250 gallon tank sprayer I used a diaphragm pump at about 580 PSI and 10 GPM a 75ft 1/2in pressure hose and a trigger spray gun with changing nozzles… check out a northern tools store, they have skid sprayers that works well
That will give you a spray about 1.3oz… when I spray and the requirements are 1oz, I just fill it to the top and start spraying…. Thanks so much for watching and the comments made
I would use the 6 gallon container for that… here’s the trick for that, use a chemical with higher percentage. Most of your store chemicals have about 1/3 concentration of the commercial grade, using commercial chemicals will let you use less per gallon
Ok, I tried to figure out what my garden hose pressure was and flow rates. Checked flow rate using 5 gallon bucket Garden hose filled bucket in 41 seconds
Jerry Baker 20 gallon sprayer 1 minute 30 seconds
Jerry Baker 6 gallon sprayer 1 minute 35 seconds
Hudson 20 gallon sprayer 1 minute 39 seconds
Flow rate (bottle test) 32 ounces Jerry Baker 20 gallon sprayer filled water to 32 ounce mark with red food coloring sprayed out 11 gallons in 4 minutes 40 seconds
Jerry Baker 6 gallon sprayer filled water to 32 ounce mark with red food coloring sprayed out 5 gallons in 2 minutes 10 seconds
Hudson 20 gallon sprayer filled water to 32 ounce mark with red food coloring sprayed out 10.5 gallons in 4 minutes 40 seconds I my mix rates seemed off all the time.
Wow… my flow rate has never been that fast… my 6 gallon does move fast but I don’t think that fast… I also never turn the hose on full force.. thanks for watching and sharing your information
Thank you for this video. I was doing the measurements totally wrong.

Thanks for showing how simple that can be!
You’re welcome.. thanks for watching
Thanks for the video sir. It really helped me out.
You are so welcome, glad it helped … thanks for watching and the kind comment
Seems the flow rate is controlled by the size of the hole? hmm. was thinking of making some small disks with different hole sizes.
Try reducing the water pressure and see what happens… what are you spraying… herbicides, insecticides or pre emergents
Is there a way to save this video?

Have you ever tried making your own hose end sprayer? I need attachments, like a wand end that sprays under the leafs. What hole sizes do what

@@wemcal did you do videos on it?
@@otrotland5377 no.. this was during the 90s before I started TH-cam..
wow, thanks, if I had to use the 20 gallon sprayer for a 3 oz per gallon mix rate, could I reduce the gallons? or how many gallons would I get?
That sprayer is only going to do about 2oz regardless.. if you can get the 6 gallon try it..thanks
I have noticed that the 20 gallon sprayer can hold 34 ounces of mix if filled to the top.
That will give you a spray about 1.3oz… when I spray and the requirements are 1oz, I just fill it to the top and start spraying…. Thanks so much for watching and the comments made
so if I fill the 20gallon tank with 20 ounces of mix, it will spray out at 1.6 ounces per gallon for 20 gallons of water?
Fill to the top you’ll get A little over 1.5oz

It’s just easier to use the 6 gallon of you plan on spraying 2oz or more

I keep getting lost figuring out how much to add
It is tricky sometimes.. if this will help, ortho has a dial sprayer, a lot easier
