Recently, it has become increasingly difficult for summer residents to grow a good crop without the use of pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers. Garden sprayers are used for uniform application and economical consumption of expensive preparations. With the help of these devices, it is possible to take care of vegetable and berry crops, shrubs and trees. Recently, sprayers have been used to disinfect buildings and premises. A wide range of household and professional sprinklers is presented on the domestic market. The recommendations of our experts will help potential buyers make the right choice.

Recommendations for selection

Types of sprayers. All garden sprayers can be divided into several groups according to the principle of operation.

1. Pneumatic or pump models are equipped with hand pumps, with the help of which air is pumped into the tank and excess pressure is created. The disadvantage of such models is the need for periodic pumping, for which you have to remove the sprayer from your shoulder and put it on the ground.

2. Hydraulic or lever devices are driven by a long handle. The tank is placed on the back, evenly distributing the weight of the sprayer with the solution. It is not necessary to remove the device until the solution is developed. With all the advantages of the device, there is also a drawback: you have to constantly work with the lever.

3. Motorized devices are equipped with electric or gasoline engines. They are high performance, but expensive and heavy.

Volume of the tank. Garden sprayers are equipped with tanks of different sizes.

1. If you need to process a small garden or a dozen bushes and trees, then a tank of 5-6 liters is enough. Such models optimally combine light weight and affordable price. Even a fragile woman can handle the device.

2. For processing plants on a large area (from 10 acres) or caring for an old garden, a lot of working solution is required. In this case, models with a tank of 10-12 liters look preferable. But only strong men can work with such an apparatus.

Rod and hose length. When a sprayer is bought for the treatment of orchard trees, one of the main selection criteria is the length of the hose and boom.

1. Most often, the length of the flexible element is within 1 m. It is desirable that the material is elastic and does not harden when cold.

2. The rod or fishing rod can be single-piece, two-piece or telescopic. Small trees can be processed with a device equipped with a one-piece bar 1 m long. It is more convenient to take care of an adult garden (tree height 4-5 m) with two-piece or telescopic bars, which have a maximum length of 1,5-3 m. it provides solution supply over a distance of several meters.

Filtration. Not all drugs dissolve well in water. Often, solid particles enter the nozzle, clogging the hole. In order not to be distracted by cleaning the device, it is better to purchase a sprayer with filter elements.

1. In some models, a fine-mesh mesh is placed on the filler neck. Mechanical impurities are retained during the refueling of the device.

2. Other manufacturers install cylindrical mesh elements in the rod. Periodically, the user needs to disassemble the sprayer and clean the filter.

Adjustments. When spraying plants with pesticides, it is sometimes important to prevent the solution from getting onto other crops. In this case, it is best to make the spray pattern narrower. Many models have taps and valves with which you can adjust the optimal pressure and degree of spray.

Our review includes the top 10 garden sprayers. These models can be purchased in specialized stores. When distributing positions, the editors of the magazine simplerule relied on the opinion of the expert community, taking into account the feedback from Russian gardeners and gardeners.
