Thank you for this video. I was doing the measurements totally wrong.

[IzzosPlace]

Thanks for showing how simple that can be!

[Peter-Bear]

Thanks for the video sir. It really helped me out.

Seems the flow rate is controlled by the size of the hole? hmm. was thinking of making some small disks with different hole sizes.

[otrotland]

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?

[otrotland]

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?

[wemcal]

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

[otrotland]

I have noticed that the 20 gallon sprayer can hold 34 ounces of mix if filled to the top.

[wemcal]

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

[otrotland]

I keep getting lost figuring out how much to add

[otrotland]

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.
