Can I use Chapin Wet/Dry Hose-End Sprayer to apply CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe product over 1000 sq. ft. of lawn?

If yes how much should I put in jar, and what should be the sprayer setting.

Answer:

CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe can be applied with the Chapin Wet/Dry Hose-End sprayer. The mixing ratio for  CoRon 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe for most applications is 22 oz. per 1000 sq. ft. To calculate the Chapin Liquid Hose End Sprayer settings, please see the following instructions: Instructions For The Liquid Side: The liquid side must always be used with a straw/diptube as this is a powerful and very accurate venturi system which draws liquid product through a small opening and mixes it with the water passing through. 1. Remove lid and make sure straw is on the nipple on the bottom of the sprayer. YOU MUST HAVE A STRAW WHEN USING LIQUID PRODUCTS. 2. The liquid side is unique but simple. It is designed to provide you with various quantities of properly mixed liquid for various size jobs. So, you must first select the number of liters/gallons of product for the area you want to spray.  There are four selections: 11 liters/3 gallons 23 liters/6 gallons 57 liters/15 gallons 80 liters/21 gallons This means when you are out of product in the jar, you have sprayed the total liters/gallon of mixed product you have selected. 3. After determining your needed liters/gallons quanitity, multiply the number of liters/gallons desired times the quanitity per liters/gallons recommended by the manufacturer. Pour this quantity directly into the jar. 4. Fill the jar with water to the line that represents the total liters/gallons you want to spray. 5. Turn selection knob to the desired liters/gallons of spray setting. DO NOT TURN WATER ON WHEN ADJUSTING SPRAY NOZZLE. 6. Select desired spray pattern. 7. Spray until empty. 8. Let's say you want to make and spray 57 liters/15 gallons of properly mixed product. The manufacturers label tells you to use .25 milliliter per liter/one ounce per gallon, you pour 110 milliliters/15 ounces of product into the jar. Then you pour water into the jar until the combined liquid level reaches the 57 liter/15 gallon mark which is on the jar. Put sprayer on the jar and be sure dial is on the correct liter/gallon setting. When the sprayer is empty, you have sprayed 57 liters/15 gallons of properly mixed product. 9. Clean sprayer and jar by rinsing jar and filling partially full of clean water and spraying until empty. If particles are stuck and exit hole is blocked, carefully poke needle or straight pin through hole in bottom of sprayer at each setting. Sometimes shaking the sprayer will suffice or the use of fast repetitive water burst (on-off). 10. When the product selector knob is in the "OFF" position, you may use your LIQUID & CLOG FREE SPRAYER as a watering tool for your plants.
