Silly Question (apply liquid chemicals)

Posted by ssgumby 6 (My Page) on

So in my effort to rid my yard of pythium Lesco had lots of liquid options.

My issue was ive never applied liquid. I have a 16,000 sq/ft yard and then another yard of around 20,000 sq/ft.

Lesco felt liquid would be best, but did sell me granular.

Going forward if I wanted to do anything liquid, what do you use to apply it? I see pull behind sprayers, but can they be adjusted to setting like 4oz per 1k?

Any tips or insight would be great!

Not silly.

You will have already calibrated your sprayer to know how many gallons of water it applies over a 1000 square foot. Then you simply dilute the product into that many gallons of water.

So if your sprayer applied at a 1 gallon per 1k rate, you would mix your 4 oz. into 1 gallon of water.
