DIY basic sprayer calibration

This is hands down THE BEST instructional video I've seen and I've looked at least 1000 square feet of a shout out to the men and women who have, or currently are, serving THE BEST country in the world. May God Bless America.

Man! Sure wish I had seen this years ago! Thanks Pete! Very helpful

Great timing on this. My 105ex arrived yesterday and was out spraying water all around when the mail carrier arrived with your nozzle assembly. Quick install, checking the 64 oz flow time and was off and running (trying to walk slow enuff) for calibration. Love the nozzles! Gonna make my half acre much more manageable. Thanks, Pete!

Pete thanks for what you do to help us with learning about our lawns. Just bought that sprayer off your link and code.

It's easier for me to start the calibration with a known amount of water, 1 gal, rather than a known amount of area. I spray 1 gallon and then measure the area covered. With those numbers determined I can calculate the amount of chemical to use per gallon and the amount of water required to cover the treatment area. Works for me. Different strokes for different folks.

I have the sprayer in the video. When would you use the air induction tip as opposed to the blue or yellow tips that came in the box? I use the red air induction most times, but think I’m over applying product.

This plugs into the wall!!! Best advise ever..

How do you depressurize the tank when done?

Thanks Pete, just got the sprayer and your tips arrive Saturday!

[bobzilla]

Thanks for the video Pete! Just got my pump sprayer a week ago! Thanks for the tips! God bless

Great content! I just bought the green one I’m so pumped to use it and I will calibrate. Thank you

This is one of the best explanations I've heard on sprayer calibration. Seriously, and I've watched a lot of them lol. I'm going to be applying pre emergent for the first time this spring in a few weeks (zone 5b) and I just got a 4 gallon pump backpack sprayer to do the job. Do you think I'm in over my head with the size of the lawn I have? I have almost 12, 000 sq ft so I know I should fill the sprayer 3 times for 1 gallon per 1, 000. Any suggestions so that it doesnt take me half a day? Now I just have to make sure I mix at the proper rate with prodiamine for the 4 month app rate because I'll be doing some major reno and overseeding mid August, so I definitely dont want to over apply! But I still want to hammer the weeds like mad to make room for some new quality grass in my lawn. Going to be a busy summer I think but I'm up for the challenge!

Great info Pete and perfect timing for all us getting out in the lawn this spring. Thanks!

Another great video, I really like Speedzone for killing weeds and if it can't be shipped to someones home state then I would recommend Bonide Weed Beater Ultra.

This ought to be on the Sprayers Plus website as well!

[johnrosado]

Pete, please make a video of your custom sprayer tips, live spraying. Don’t know what we are buying with only the website. Thanks

So for each lawn I will need to fill the tank with water and walk the yard in order to determine how much water I will need?
