Microgreen production has reached the point that I no longer want to use that manual sprayer, so I forked over the $6.27 for a pump action sprayer to be delivered to me from China via Amazon.  Patiently waiting the three or four weeks it takes to arrive, I’m so excited to implement this simple and relatively inexpensive efficiency tool.

I wash the China smell out of the sprayer.  I mix up a new batch of H2O2 (one half cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide in one gallon of water) to use as my sanitizing solution in the spray bottle.  I pump up the pressure, and ahhhhh that’s so good !!!

I set the hand held pump sprayer down on the shelf.  It rolls off.  Gravity takes hold and at an accelerating pace pulls my new tool to the ground and SNAP!  The tip breaks.  It still works a bit, but not well.  And it leaks.

10 minutes … 10 minutes is all I had with this tool.  My excitement is abated.  I fork over another $6.27 and begin my 3-4 week wait yet again.
