Does anyone use these to spray under the canopy to fertilize the majority of the main root system ?

I realize that they sell them with the water soluble fertilizer in them, but can you use them for liqued fertilizers like Neptunes ?
And how far can they spray under the canopy ? I can spray my hose a good 10 ft under the canopy and thought it would be great if I could get fertilizer to spray in a similar fashion.

I tried the miracle grow sprayer and found it didn't do a very good job.
I think you would be much happier with a hose end sprayer like the Ortho Dial N Spray It has a very wide range of dilution settings which the miracle grow unit does not.

I agree, the Ortho works.

I wish they would market a ortho dial n' spray that had threads on both intake and outflow like the MG feeder does.
