Up front, I admit to a cranky back,a bit of laziness, and very little experience in horticultural endeavors; however, there has to be an easier ways to treat the undersides of all leaves than I am currently doing, which is --lift and spray, or trigger nozzle under each leaf. Almost all post emergence chemicals require treating both uppers and lowers. Surely, some of you heavy hitters have engineered around this drudgery and will share your ingenuity--least I hope so. Regards, Clutch. PS: Cucumber beatles and white flies have arrived to join the parade of villians already in my patch--anthracnose, aphids, spider mites and thrips. I'll be lucky to get a decent "eater" out of my eleven hills.

Yes they use blowers & it rolls the leafs over to catch the spray.Todd Dawson made a video of this.
