I was going to ask is it the same strength in garden centresYou can’t buy 360g/l glyphosate in a garden centre though, I’d happily drink what the garden centres sell...

We used to have a similar sprayer but u just turned pto off then back on when u wanted spraying again wasn’t much need for using handle on machine apart from when filling out it in agitationI know of a few spraying 100+ acres with those 800 litre cheap galvanised sprayers with no on/off as there to far away from a modern tractor so just leave it on and keep driving, no induction hoppers etc either, no licenses and no idea on how much they use just a “half bottle of this and that” was what they said they used
or tesco!!You can buy Roundup in most Garden Centres
Just because someone was spraying on grandfather rights, doesn’t mean they are an unprofessional sprayer. It means they were very experiencedPuzzled with your comment....
Why did you not simply do a proper PA 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 course instead of a pretty poor, IMO, substitute? Then there is no issue with insurance or application or simply doing the right thing. Seems like the chemical sellers need a kick up the arse. Yes I can buy a loada stuff using my holding number but I did a heap of PA's a while ago. It was fun and informative and I'm a better spray applicator for the course.
I'm using my quals again for insect infestations so they are a useful tool in the box.

The top is Roundup Power Max - Farming grade roundup. (720g/l of glyphosate)I was going to ask is it the same strength in garden centres
Yes true, but I’m pretty sure you can’t buy neat concentrate in garden centres etc.. Unsure if people are aware but neat concentrate is stored in bunded pesticide lockers/containers/sheds etc..the top is not mixed the tesco is ready to use
Has anyone ever heard of someone being fined / prosecuted for non PA 1/2 or no MOT on sprayer .
What was the consequence?
That’s something they won’t be able to do in a few years time.Deduction in sfp
No but I’ve been kicked off the NRoSO scheme quite a few times for not having enough points, got to have a year “off” then can re register, all the meetings were on the east coast and always on the best spray days of the week I remember driving to Hereford once, 15 hour day for 3 CPD pointsHas anyone ever heard of someone being fined / prosecuted for non PA 1/2 or no MOT on sprayer .
If their claiming subsidy then boxes to tick.I know of a few spraying 100+ acres with those 800 litre cheap galvanised sprayers with no on/off as there to far away from a modern tractor so just leave it on and keep driving, no induction hoppers etc either, no licenses and no idea on how much they use just a “half bottle of this and that” was what they said they used
