A quick tip on spraying more viscous materials with a permagreen. Remove the nozzle strainers (they restrict flow). Also, I got me one of those plastic finned drill mixers from Lowe’s. Mix right in the tanks and the plastic won’t chew up the tank. Your metal one may be fine though since it has a safety ring over the spiral part. I use in my backpack sprayer too. Great sidewalk explanation of organic acids too!

Thanks for the informative video. I am just South of Charlotte and I have red clay, but per my soil test my CEC is very low. I am in a new build and I believe the builder added a good amount of crap fill dirt on top of the clay. I think adding Humic is just the start of my improvement plan for the soil. May have to top dress with soil every season during overseed to add some decent soil to the yard.

Great stuff Paul. Congrats on the permagreen too. I hope you can put more content in using it with tips, and detailed how to videos with it. I hope to upgrade to one if I can $$$ it in the next year or two. In Matt’s last live show he said he can spray all size yards with it. That appeals to me more than the skid because I can load the pg when needed and store in garage when not needed.
