NE Indiana | Guess I don't understand what you're talking about? I was just saying hand spraying with a backpack sprayer cannot be compared to lower carrier rates from a sprayer or drone. Lets just say for example you spray liberty at 43 oz per acre at 20 GPA. Now lets say a water hemp plant covers around 1 square foot. that plant might get .05 oz solution sprayed on it. I can guarantee when you hand spray with a backpack sprayer you're getting way more than that on the plant. I'm going to say at least 2-3 oz per plant so that would be like 40x the normal rate of a sprayer.
Now lets just say the backpack sprayer was 20 gallon and you put 43oz of liberty in it because you mix it the same as the regular sprayer. That plant will get the equivalent of 1720 oz per acre of liberty. I sure hope it would die at that rate, or we got some serious problems.
