Three hours cannon spraying

[spruce Deere]

Got home from work, weather was good, hit the tree fields full throttle with the jacto cannon sprayer.

Three hours, 15 acres. Not bad for 40hp tractor

Spraying for what ?

You must love your jacto. 7500 trees took me 11 hours with a wand sprayer.

Spraying for white pine weevils. They become active early and and destroy the top leader of the spruce by laying there eggs in the cambium layer of the bark. Also for adelgids. Another tree foliage killer.

Love the jacto. Spraying 50 foot swaths at a time you cover alot of acres

I'm battling mites and rhabdocline.

All our Blue Spruce is getting whacked by needle cast. I only have about 40 more to cut out and burn.

Awesome Photos! Love "Northmost" Idaho!

What size hopper/tank does that sprayer have?

 

[spruce Deere]

The jacto has a 120 gal tank and can blast very close to straight up also. The cannon tube adjusts all over the place.
We have some rysoferia, spelled how it sounds not correctly, another form of needle cast. Spray for that later.

The jacto makes it all possible!!

I used to spray for pine weevil but it never worked for me. I treat the roots every fall and that has worked out for me. Those weevils can take two years of growth in 3 months.

I like that sprayer.
