Getting ready to use my Stihl SR200 for the first time and trying to figure out the proper amount of chemicals to add. I am comfortable calculating a proper mix in a hand sprayer from the label recommended rate per acre. With the mist blower I'm assuming I need a more concentrated mix as the carrier volume is going to be lower. Any rules of thumb to figure the correct mixes?

I'm interested in this info also. Just purchased the same sprayer, but have not used it yet.

I have used the same mix concentrations as for the pump sprayers. You still want to wet the leaves with the solution. The benefit is a much more even coating and the ability to get under the leaves.

Read the bottle and what I've been doing this year and last is asking AI. It seems to be pretty spot on with mixing ratios. I've also been known to call the company and ask one of the reps.
Good luck!
