Dear Gerrit and All,
I was just wondering if in #3 1:1500 was a typo. Maybe 1:150?
Second question: I've been using a disscarded plastic spray bottle. I like the
fine mist but my...... it's hard on the index finger to keep pumping it.
Should I be using one of those pump up sprayers (steel can with hose and
wand) (course spray) or something else?
