4/4/2025 – This application was based on the application on 2/21/2024 pasted below. In addition to what we did then, we added 2 1.5 lb. jugs of Extinguish Ant Bait (minus 25/150 or 17%), some for the spreader) mixed in the wheelbarrow in the back of the truck and loaded into the spreader bought at Sun South. The spreader gate was set at 2.5 per 2/21/2024 below.
Spread the remaining 25 lbs with Extinguish with the new cyclone seeder set at 4 and 17% of a 1.5 lb. jug:
- on the kitchen yard;
- around and under the old oak tree;
- The small yard between the greenhouse and the driveway;
- and aiming into the old azalea row.
That set up worked out as expected.
For reference purposes from the post on 2/21/2024 here – Tested Fergie’s run time in the Pecan Orchard between 5 trees (200 feet}. Running in 1H gear at 2100 RPM she covered the 200 ft in about 34 seconds, which is 3 MPH.
Set the gate at 2.5 and spread in 1H at 2100 RPM. Loaded 2.5 bags (125 lbs) and it covered the whole yard from the grain bin and azalea row to the road fence to the big azalea and blueberry bushes.
Spread the remaining 25 lbs with the new cyclone seeder set at 4:
- on the kitchen yard;
- around and under the old oak tree;
- The small yard between the greenhouse and the driveway;
- and aiming into the old azalea row.
The spreader setting at 2.5 running in 1H at 2100 RPMS was good.
