The article has provided us with some great insights on how to use a hose end sprayer and what it is. Replace cap/spray handle assembly on top of filled bottle - remove any excess air in trigger mechanism by depressing repeatedly while pushing up and down on plunger over nozzle opening (discard this solution) - pressurize the chameleon unit at this time by pumping plunger multiple times (10+ pushes) while depressing the trigger mechanism - this will ensure proper spring action in sprayer and facilitate easy pumping/spraying operation.

My plan is to put those amounts into my Gilmour 362, set it to 1 Tbs per gallon and spray until the mixture is all gone.I was applying (once a month during March/April) a cocktail of 1/2 cup each of liquid seaweed, BioAg and Molasses with my Gilmour hose-end sprayer set on 1 tablespoon.
