Best pump & spray bottles for labs according to redditors

Absolutely, here we go:


Essential Hardware

$80 Clones - $20 from dispensary.

$325 Lights: Horticulture Lighting Group 260 QB LED Kit

• I cannot say enough about these lights. I had to run them anywhere from 50-75% during veg to prevent light burn. Great coverage for a 2x4 tent. Nothing but praise 10/10 would buy again.
  
  $70 2' x 4' x 5' Mylar tent
  
  
• Holding up well, easy build. Is not 100% dark, light leaks outwards from spots along the zipper and pinholes but no light leak into the tent during dark.
  
  $90 4" Inline duct fan and Carbon Filter
  
  
• This puppy can SUCK, I have to keep it on the lowest setting to prevent the pressure inside the tent from dropping (need to work on my passive intake next grow). Carbon filter works great. Lowers humidity in a pinch.
  
  $10 - Ducting/Clamps from ACE
  
  $21 Osculating Fan
  
  
• I have it on a small stand and osculating 24/7. It pushes air, not a jet engine though.
  
  Already on hand: Box Fan
  
  
• Had one from years ago. Sometimes I open the tent and blast this on high right on level with the buds just go shake out the leaves, gets a bit crowded in the scrog and I'd like to eliminate any humidity caught between leaves sticking together. Think you can scoop one from Walmart for like $15 bucks, $20 max.
  
  $25 [Humidifier] (https://www.walmart.com/ip/Sunbeam-Warm-Mist-Humidifier-SWM6000-BWM/32664862)
  
  
• This puppy does well. I use the first setting, usually can run 16+ hours on a full reservoir of H20. No filter which keeps cost down, just need to clean it one or twice a week with a brush for the hard water deposits. 5-10 minute process.
  
  $45 Dehumidifier
  
  
• This was a bit of a mistake purchase. I wanted to test and see if a small model offered on amazon (this looked to be one of the best for sub $50, and has the biggest holding tank out of them all) could put in any kind of noticeable work in a tent. What I noticed is that it will be able to roughly maintain humidity at times, after I run the exhaust fan to lower the levels. When the lights are out and the temperature drops, this thing has no chance. Go with a full size dehumidifier or rely on the dry Colorado air + passive intake + duct fan. I was struggling with humidity issues during the cold of the winter, now that I can have my windows open my ambient room humidity is usually 40% or below.
  
  $18 4" inline duct booster fan
  
  
• Also a mistake purchase. Does not move a lot of air. Had plans to use this for an airflow/passive (not) intake system but it's not worth the electricity cost to run this thing. I'd stay away.
  
  
  $13 Ph Meter
  
  $12 TDS PPM meter
  
  $9 Soil Moisture, Light, Ph meter - Does it's job
  
  $9 Ph Control Kit
  
  $14 Ph Calibration solution
  
  
• For the life of the Ph meter, I store the tip in 7.0 solution that I pour into the cap. Good to have on hand for calibration.
  
  $6 Spray Bottles (Did not use these much, only very early during transplanting.)
  
  
  
  
  $7 for 30ct Starter grow bags
  
  
• Do not recommend, breathe terribly, water stagnates even with modifications. Had to feed lightly and often, and really monitor dampness. Needed these for the outdoor garden anyways)
  
  
  $18 Hygrometer for Temp/Humidity
  
  
• Worth it to get the wireless monitor so you're not opening the tent all the time)
  
  $8 for 6ct 5 gal Smart Pot knockoff
  
  
• Do their job, hold up well. I cut the handles off to make watering under the scrog easier.
  
  
  $40 - Soil: Two bags of Happy Frog. Ocean forest was sitting around.
  
  Nutrients: $165
  
  
• I have a local grow shop that I purchased a lot of these from. The 1 litre Cyco nutrient bottles ranged from $10-$18 and I have 7 different nutrients - call that $100 after tax.
  
  
• Grow A, Grow B, Bloom A, Bloom B, Dr Repair, Potash, Silica
  
  
• I purchased Key to Life - Uptake For just shy of $20. Great for calcium uptake.
  
  
• Cyco Grow XL Super Phosphoric Acid was $45 - not cheap for 100ml but I think the potential yield improvement will cover that cost, especially over 3-4 grows which I expect to get out of the bottle.
  
  $13 - Scrog net: for something like 50-100ft of plastic garden fence from Home Depot. Using a lot of it for a garden.
  
  
  $15 - Miscelaneous: Eyedroppers, duct tape, zip ties, and odds and ends: Call it $15.
  
  
  
  
  So to total that all out we're looking just over 1000 that I spent, could have kept it under $950 if I had not purchased the small duct fan or dehumidifier. Also: Soil and nutrients for $205. Could work that down to under $150 by dropping a couple unnecessary yet desirable nutrients.
  
  
  Sorry for the formatting! I'm going to do a big post write up and this is a great place to start at least. Thanks for the motivation.
  
  
  
  
  

I've been using these same 3 spray bottles m-f 9am-5pm for 3 years. Still work.

Just so you know, you can make your own liquid chalk for very cheap.

Here's what you need:

1. Rock climbing/gymnastic chalk. Get it powdered, or powder it yourself, but make sure it's the consistency of powdered sugar.
   
   
2. Rubbing alcohol -- the purer the better. At least 90% pure.
   
   
3. A bottle of some sort. I like these.
   
   Then you just experiment with the proportions. Add some chalk, add some alcohol, shake and test. Too liquid? Add chalk. Too thick? Add alcohol. The proportions aren't exact. Fiddle with it until it's what you want.

I love decanting liquid products into little spray/mist bottles. I feel like I waste less product on cotton and I'm not touching my face so that's always a win. I am pretty sure my face has cleared up at least in part because of this. I use a clean puff to apply thicker consistency lotions/serums. These bottles were really cheap from Amazon and they are glass. Bottles: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00V75EUWQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_21_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1481082683&sr=8-21&keywords=Vivaplex

Harris Professional Spray Bottle 32oz (3-Pack), All-Purpose with Clear Finish, Pressurized Sprayer, Adjustable Nozzle and Measurements

I use these for cleaning products both for the car and around the house. The mist can be adjusted to be very fine with a fairly large coverage area, and they haven’t given me any problems yet.

He got it on his fingers when he picked the part up. The bitterant doesn’t wash off with soap either. You have to wear nitrile gloves or use a canned refrigerant like this one:

Here are some glass spray bottles on Amazon. I personally have not used these ones, I use plastic ones for my products, but these seem to be what you want.

Fill them with vinegar and arm yourselves. Everytime she says something nasty you squirt her and say 'Bad MIL!'

I have a little spray bottle that I keep on hand, one of these that used to have glasses cleaner in it, filled with water to spray my gouache down periodically as I'm working. And I keep big amounts of my less expensive gouache in one of these; for as inexpensive as it is it does a really good job of keeping them wet. If you've got any M. Graham gouache, though, I wouldn't recommend keeping it anywhere but in the tube, though. I'm not sure if it's because they use honey alongside gum arabic as the binder, but the black I put into there got moldy and smelled disgusting after a couple of days. I like a lot of their other art supplies but I'm definitely not going to be getting any of their gouache again.

I've been pleased with these spray bottles

The first step is to get a container that you can cover. This can be one of the plastic Chinese food takeaway boxes with a clear lid or just a small pot that you can cover with clear plastic wrap. Baby succulents need to be kept moist to germinate. For soil, you will want something that isn't quite as gritty as you would use for adult plants because you don't want to lose seeds down into deep crevices. You want to remove large pieces of bark or other things from the soil. I am going to be using a mix of succulent soil and sand in my next batch. Once you have your mix, add a little water so that it is moist but not wet. Smooth the top of the soil and sprinkle your seeds. Do not bury them. You need a fine misting spray bottle so that when you water the seeds don't get knocked around. I have this one and recommend it. Make sure the soil stays moist. You don't want it to looks shiny and wet, just damp. Keep the seeds in bright but not direct sun. I keep mine where I grow my haworthia. Uncover your seedlings a week or two after they have germinated. This helps reduce the likelihood of fungus or rot.

Get you some Refillable Plastic Atomizers and some Pipettes. Then if you're really crafty, a label maker or strip of paper with some clear tape over the side for a label.

I'm from Nova Scotia, Canada and I find that we use vinegar as a "seasoning" / finisher much more often then other places I've been.

A few people below have already listed a trick we use; a small spritz bottle of vinegar instead of drizzling it, as a mist is a lot less intense then a small stream.

Here is the spritz bottle set I have for my vinegars:

https://www.amazon.com/Vivaplex-Amber-Glass-Bottles-Sprayers/dp/B00V75EUWQ

As someone also already mentioned, the classic combo I use ALL the time is malt vinegar over anything starchy, fried or white fishes. I spritz higher end malt over french fries, home fries, battered fish, sword fish steaks, haddock sticks -- lots of things.

I have an apple cider vinegar I love to spritz over winter soups and stews. The one I have is a mild vinegar, so it's less intense but it brings a beautiful lift to normally heavy things like beef stew.

Balsamic vinegar I spritz over: salads, greek food, pasta, strawberries, salmon and sometimes even lightly over orange slices.

White wine vinegar I'll also use for salmon, and I also have a second bottle of white wine vinegar mixed with lemon rind for this.

Rice vinegar goes on my sushi, a little bit on a bahn mi sandwich, a little over some fried rice. Basically my asian foods. I also have a rice vinegar mixed with orange and lime rind for a more citrus floral taste.

Sherry vinegar I spritz over roasts, pork chops, steaks. Basically any deep meat. Also not bad on a burger with carmelized onions.

Basically, it's about moderation and about distribution. By spritzing instead of drizzling or adding directly into food you can use vinegar just like you would use any other seasoning, such as the variations of salt

First off, I know how this subreddit rags on CoD mentions all the time. I'll start with the fact that I'm not a fanboy, jumped off the bandwagon several iterations back, but 4 is my favorite game of all time.

I did a little research, because your comment piqued my curiousity and it turns out it probably isn't a corrosive agent. I can't speak for what they intended in the game, but it seems commercially-available sprays are around, mostly types of freon or liquid nitrogen. What they do is bring down the temperature of the metal so far that it becomes ridiculously brittle and simply falls apart with a simple touch. One post on a forum mentioned this: http://www.amazon.com/MG-Chemicals-Super-Spray-Aerosol/dp/B0047Y9DKS

The non-add-on price is way cheaper and it has free shipping! I just need a ton of these plastic bottles for my classroom. I hope to get some deals on black friday.

I use small glass bottles with a pump sprayer like these. They aren't as pretty as the big aftershave bottles, but I find these a lot more practical and less wasteful. 5-6 sprays into your cupped hand is all you need. Makes it a lot easier to always dispense the same amount of aftershave.

Check out Harris Professional sprayers. I buy them by the case and can't say anything bad about them. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N1LG79I/

Been doing some slight research on this topic as well.
For me i have narrowed it down to 3

HDX 32 oz. All-Purpose Wide-Mouth Sprayer
Little Giant Professional Sprayer Bottle
CSBD 32 oz Plastic Spray Bottles

a fourth option is Kwarzar

I am just a weekend warrior and these bottles can be used with other household stuff too but I chose the HDX due to the quick availability (Down the street from me is a Home Depot) and because the wide mouth is nice. Nozzle seems to be holding up okay.

The Little Giants are similar to Griot's bottles in size but i've been told the nozzle will last longer. This is due to wide ranges Little Giant manufacturers products for. Also has a few colors to chose from is why it is in my list

CSBD was chosen due to cost, bottle size, and color options. I am unsure about the longevity of the nozzle.

As my my garage evolves and storage becomes easier i will change over to different colored bottles for a particular task.

I have used ZEP's for household uses and they are some of the best but the cost for me right now can't be justified in purchasing a lot of them

This one is my favorite so far.
