We have had excellent results getting good coverage (as measured
by SFW) on potatoes in a field setting. We haven't, however, been
able to get good coverage on tomatoes and cucumbers in our
greenhouses where the plant canopy is very dense and upright and
leaves, especially on cukes, are so large that they tend to turn
upside down so only one side is covered.

A friend suggested that maybe grape growers would face a similar
problem and have found a solution. Are there any grape growers
who would be willing to share what kind of sprayer they have used
and any other particulars that might help to get good penetration and
coverage in very dense upright foliage?

Thank you,
Tim Livingstone
