Market Farming

[Shawnee Flowerfarmer <farmingflowers AT hotmail.com>]

I'd like to know about any alternative backpack sprayers also.  Have always used Solo and become resigned to having several defunct ones stored for parting out.  I rarely have one last for very long without needing spare fiddly bits.   Very big ditto on the shoulder padding recommendation.
 
I can definitely see the value of a motorized version...it should speed up the spraying ordeal if you have alot of distance to cover...it's trade off though...spray faster, refill oftener too.  I can procrastinate on Solo spraying out in the fields when I think of loading up the water etc in the pickup truck.
