It's done (thank god)! Three long days, sun up to sunset, 18 gallons of diesel, back & forth across vast areas of grass spraying at 140 psi.

Only 18 gallons of diesel? I can burn that in a day and a half easily.

What model tractor did you use?

How much product did you apply through the sprayer? The logistics of refilling would be a challenge. I get confused mowing fields with trying to figure out the most efficient route so that I don't waste time mowing mowed grass. Much worse with spraying where you can't tell where you've been.

You can put a dye in the spray that allows you to see where you have sprayed. It dissapates rather quickly too.

The rate of AI was 1 half oz per 1000 sq. ft. I was getting approximately 1.5 acres out of each tank.
