I would add to this that there are a number of commercial products, usually
called sticker spreaders,or spreader stickers, that do much the same thing
as a little soap, (make the spay stick to the leaves better) only they do it
much better....these products are sometimes a little hard to find, but
they're not very expensive and they do work...they work great.
