Continuous Spray Bottle

Post by **Sage** » Fri Feb 18, 2022 3:49 am

I'm really liking this new sprayer. It atomizes the droplets much much smaller than other sprayers I've used in the past. It is effortless to pump and shoots longer per trigger pull than a normal sprayer. It also sprays 360 degrees without failing. That makes it easy to hit the undersides of all leaves making it great for foliar feeding of nutrients and or mycorrhizal which is important to hit all the stomata on the underside of the leaves. Nutrients from foliar sprays make some elements like iron more accessible to your plants than they would be available in the soil, water, or hydroponic solution. It's great way to make a "quick fix" if a nutrient is lacking or "locked out" via the roots if needed. I do some foliar feeding but mostly I use it for applying a couple mycorrhizal products, 1 that increases photosynthetic efficiency and another that does many things but the main reason I use that one is it makes a less habitual environment for mildews and molds. Part of my PPM for powdery mildew and blossom end rot aka bud rot amongst any other nasties.

It was $10 USD on Amazon listed as "Continuous Spray Bottle Hair Water Ultra Fine Mister Sprayer Propellant Free for Hairstyling, Cleaning, Gardening, Misting & Skin Care BPA Free"

I've seen these in my local hair dressers. I never thought about using them on the plants. Great idea Sage.

I don't seem to be using much sprays lately but if you say it's good i'll grab one for when it's needed. My old pressure spray gave up and just went in the bin.

They last a couple of months at best.

I've been through a few of them in the last year or so.

Fantastic sprayers when they work though.

I was going to say, they must be given a very good clean with water after each use otehrwise they get blocked.

I've had a pack of 2 turn up not working from the off. Then the replacement pack of 2 where one bottle was melted, so I sent my original faulty one back with that pack and kept the one that kinda worked.

They tend to start dripping from the handle area, and then pack in completely. I'll do a video of my current one later and show you. I get more wet than anything I try and spray with it.

I went and bought a proper pressure pump sprayer for £40 https://www.osatusprayer.com/en/kale-6-83856.html and that gets used EVERYWHERE now, even in the garden. I mixed up some cayenne and chilli to make a spray to keep the foxes from squirting their bum juice all over the place.
