For you guys that use a sticker(lesco) with 3-way in your magnum. What rate of sticker do you use. The guys at my lescoJD store do not really know.

LI 700 works better than a standard sticker in my opinion

I don't use sticker or surfactant in my Permagreen. It causes too much foaming in the tank. It becomes hard to fill the tank.
Most sticker/surfactants use about 2 to 4 quarts per hundred gallons, about 7 to 15 ounces per 12 gallon tank.

We use 1 1/2 qt. per 100 in the nurse tank with a shot of defoamer or knockdown. I can't imagine not using sticker at 1/4 gal. per 1,000, but to each, his own.

I use it in my Ultra at a rate of 10 oz per 8 gal fill. I add when I've reached the 6 gal mark during fill to minimize foaming

What about issues with clogged nozzles? We found when we used a sticker it gummed up the nozzles very quickly, we only use a surfactant now.

for post broadleaf herb i found about 1oz(spreader/sticker) to 3 gal
is sufficient for me. if im spraying a grassy post herbi i usually dbl it.
get urself some defoamer, a squirt in each tank fill completely controls
the foaming problem

I use 1 one second squirt per 8 gal. tank. that and little bit of antifoam, and sometimes a few drops of odorscent to sweeten it.
