First off does anybody know who makes the perfect sprayer. One that has a fine mist like the hand pumps but the ease of the big gallon yard sprayers that you pump up by hand. Or just a place to get the proper tip I want. Modifications? Ideas??
What I bought was one of those round-up gallon yard sprayers but you have to pump it up to get the pressure to get the spray I want out of that brass nozzle that came with it, and when the pressure drops a little it gets to be too heavy of a spray. So I want a finer spray from start to finish. So I need a new tip or a better sprayer. Not a small hand held pumper but one with a wand so I can reach back in there to spray my plants.
Also want to ask if anybody out there has a good idea for making a light cover so I can spray my plants and not get juice all over my lights and spot up my glass. Any ideas for this??
Something I can make that you will just hook one end on the light and flip snap on the other end so I can spray my plants.
What I have thought of and tried is using cardboard and magnets to stick to the underside. The magnets ended up being to small to hold the cardboard up. So that idea may need to be re-modified.
What I am thinking now is getting some plexi glass and making two wire hooks on one end of the plexi glass to hang on the light and then some velcro straps to secure the other end so I can spray.
Sound easy but with what I have going on know you have a small area to work in. Imagine you open your door to your room and you have string running across it four feet high then plants sticking above that. Then a small area and then your lights which are raised up all of the way. So you will have to get the cover in there and then move under the string so you can reach out and secure the cover to the light so you can spray.
It was difficult trying to see if the cardboard idea worked without messing up my plants. I didnt mess anything up but dont want to either and I dont want to do this three times like I always do.
Maybe instead of hooks I can make a channel and glue it under the glass on the frame to slide in the plexi glass into it and then velcro the other side to hold it. Sounds easy.? never is. I need something I can use for a channel. ]
My room is 7"x7" and I use the 6" magnum xxxxl hoods. I also need to make a cover for the 4' 8 bulb T-5's for another room.
Any ideas?
Any pics if you have done something like this?
TIA
