I'm looking to build my own ~5 gallon cart sprayer (12v) to use in both a large vegetable garden as well as for fruit trees up to 18' or 20'.

Does anyone have direct experience as to if a single sprayer with different nozzles can work for both of these situations?

Anyone know what a good target flow rate and pressure would for a pump that would serve those needs?

Ideally I'd find a pump that runs variable pressure/speed, but haven't seen that yet.
