Are drip and gravity feed applicators good methods of applying the seed treatment?
No. Drip and gravity fed product applicators do not allow for accurate volume control or seed coverage. For gravity fed applicators, the volume rate will change as the container empties and will make it difficult to apply an accurate product rate. Drip applicators may somewhat control the volume of the product but do not allow for proper seed coverage. The seed treatment needs to be in contact with the seed and be of proper coverage to be effective.
