Scott - I have a HF backpack sprayer that I highly.
https://www.harborfreight.com/4-gallon-backpack-sprayer-63092.html
Click the coupon link at the top right of the page and they are
currently $19.99. I've been using it for several years now after having
1 and 3 gal pump up bottles like yours. It is so much nicer to not
carry the bottle. The big pump handle is also much easier to use and
take many less pumps. The nozzle is adjustable to make it easier to
spray broad areas. I do recommend taking a moment to make sure all the
fittings are tight before first use.
I have several brick patios and a bunch of railroad tie steps. About
every three weeks during weed season I mix up three gallons of a now
evil commercial weed killer and make a round up and down the property.Â
That seems to be a good balance for me. Late in the season, I might
drop to two gallons.

<div>I'm trying to keep weeds at bay--in the driveway and near
the garage, and in those rocks in my previous post which
sprout grass each spring. My plan was to use that sprayer to
hose down the rock garden with a mixture of vinegar and salt
and kill the little bastards before they germinated. </div>

</div>
<div>That sprayer is useless for that--it produces a tiiny, thin
spray that is really only useful for individual tiny weeds in
cracks in pavement. And even that takes forever.</div>

<div>The 'rocked area' is maybe 2000 sq. ft. total, and I want
