Is anyone applying fertilizer and or pesticide through their misting system? This is my goal this next season and I'd like to know what others are doing. What misters have worked, any problems with plugging, etc??

We'll find out next year when I reduce the output of the heads. For this year there was no problem running Bolster or Neptunes Harvest through Hunter PS-04 ADJ pop-ups. Finer misters might clog. If that were the case, a cheap in-line strainer should solve the problem. -Steve

Use a high quality fert and you will have no clogs even in the fine misters! Even kelp!!!

I had no problems when following the instructions of Joel Holland for his fish and kelp. I also have used liquid fish from AGRO-K. as sold by Craig Lembke. The facts with these are that they are made to high percentages of re hydration or screened to very small particulate that cause no problems.

I used misting heads from Dripworks, in Calif. The same can be said for underground irrigation through their T-TApe designed for gravity flow.
