3 Spray Rig Equipment Setups for Weed Control and Fertilization

Check out 3 different spray rig setups from Graham Spray Equipment for running a weed control and fertilization business. Two of these rigs are on flat bed trucks while the other is on a pickup truck. We talk about pros and cons of different truck and spray tank setup options and also give some business tips for running a weed control and fertilization business. I switched over from mowing lawns and it has been a great move for my business while allowing me to learn more about lawn care.

I picked up a 200 gallon Lesco sprayer in Birmingham last year. Put a brand new Honda and a Hypro D30 pump on it and haven’t looked back!

Great video and info. When will we see more videos on your other channel? I really enjoy watching those.

[@MrHiggs89]

Sound advice! Where do you store your fert on your flat bed truck and what do you use you to tie it down with? also you use only use the chest spreader or do you use a push spreader as well?

[@maustank8864]

That pump is a hypro d30 on the last truck. Most versatile pump on the market IMO. Stick you your gun on the back side of the tee jet ready in 4 to 5 minutes. Remove your filter!

Great video! I am looking to set up a system like that, but I have to be able to bring along my old Z spray. It’s the Z max, and wide. I would love the Isuzu npr spray truck, but on a lot of those dedicated spray bodies, the drop tanks are in the back. Makes it difficult to add on a carrier that will support the larger Z spray.

[@GardenerEarthGuy]

Why invest in a large tank with a ZSpray? You only need to drag hose on places you can't reach, but a 75 foot hose takes care of that. A 100 gallon tank could handle ornamental or mosquitoes. The Z is far more versatile than a spray truck...
Maybe hauling water for a Z?

[@sidneywhitaker9972]

@@GardenerEarthGuy yes primarily for a nurse tank, and the smaller properties. No I absolutely don’t want to drag hoses on all the large properties

[@GardenerEarthGuy]

@@sidneywhitaker9972 ZSpray is light years beyond spray truck- but pony tank can't do ornamental. I feel for you.
Towing in tight scenes sucks....
I asked Steel Greene if they planned on a street legal ztr sprayer- something like this is needed, I spray from Golf Cart.

jason...enjoyed the video. My 100 gallon skid is definilty not big enough. Like they have said...get at least a 200 gallon skid. Can you provide any tips for oxalis in St Augustine and bermuda please. I continue to fight with this particular weed. A few of these yards are overrun with oxalisis, and I need to get past this invasive weed that keeps coming back. Thanks!

[@lawncarelife]

I would use 16 oz per acre of change up

Hi Jason. Do you have an instagram? My son is a mechanical engineer but went a different path. He is a soil management expert. His clients are PGA, farmers and the #1 client is the San Francisco Giants. He is fully responsible for that field. With his program he saved the Giants over 1.4 million dollars last year. The MLB wants to hire him for all their fields. He set up a farm today. You have to see the tanks. On IG I could send you the picture. You would truly love it. When he sent it to me today I immediately thought of you. You have to see the set up. I am joining your FB group to put the picture up but IG would be great.
