Thanks for responding, Pat, as usual. I imagine the hose end device is less
accurate than an actual measure, but when you're doing a drench for all
these plants, isn't it unwieldy to use a gallon pump? I'd be refilling it
constantly, no?

You guys are great. But you knew that already, right?

I use a gallon pump sprayer or a three gallon pump backpack sprayer
depending on how much I need. I do not think hose end sprayers or siphon
sprayers are a good idea for orchids and most chemicals for lots of
reasons,
some learned the hard way.

One more question for you folks who use this product. We used it to spray
this week, once the rain stopped around here. When I checked the level of
product in our spray bottle (hose end type) I didn't see much of a
reduction. No way was enough product getting through.

3336 is *very* thick, the consistency of milk of magnesia or condensed
milk, and it appears that this type of applicator won't work well with
it. So, my question: is there a problem with thinning the 3336 by half
with water and then doubling the dosage? More to the point, will it work?
How well does this product mix?

I can't see myself filling and refilling a one gallon pump sprayer enough
times to saturate over 250 plants. Hints?
