Not sure if any help but seasol and some lawn fertilisers come in 2 litre
containers. Should be available at Big B(unnings)

Ah did a Google search first link is the sprayers you are after. The second
link is stockists. But looks like you might have to order as a special
through the hardware place.

The fertilizer ones are no good for my purpose.
The ones I want have graduations like 5litres 10litres 15litres etc and
if you want say 40 mls of chemical to 20 litres of water you put 20 mls
of chemical in bottle and fill with water to the 20 litre mark then the
hose sprays the mixture at required rate.

I have already found many mail order places from overseas but I want
somewhere here.
PS I already have two that I bought in hardware shops years ago but I am
moving house and I can not find them at the moment (probably buried in
the container in a box somewhere)

I will ring some of them tomorrow although I went to one of them on the
list at fivedock before I knew the brand and they did not know what I
was talking about from my description.

I wouldn't want to lug around 20 litres of water (20 kg +weight of sprayer)
for any length of time. It was bad enough fertilising roses for a customer
from a 15 kg bag recently. Better to have something you fill more often than
to lug around something heavy. Even if you half fill it the bulkiness of the
container is not good. For me a 10 litre model would be my maximum. Remember
too you will be dragging a hose around as well.

I had the same thought but then I guessed that the container markings are
not for 20 litres but for the equivalent of mixed content and then 20 litres
of water sprays through the hose and uses up all the fluid.

I have been known to be wrong before.

Let us know how you go. This looks like a pretty handy little gadget...

You are correct, the container is only 500mls or one litre the
graduations are not proportional , if you want say 40 mls per 20 litres
you put 40 mls of stuff in and fill to 20 litre mark the bottle may be
only part filled but the hose mixes it at the rate of 40 mls per 20 litres.

like this http://www.hudsonsprayers.com.au/products/hose/

But this company says it supplies home hardware and mitre 10 stores so I
tried numerous places and got nowhere so I rung them and the only place
near to sydney they supplied recently was near newcastle so I gave up.
I have found a nursery that is getting me a better one that has brass
fittings with a 500 ml bottle that has a graduated dosing lever to
regulate mix although it is dearer.
