OK, so to sum it up, if I use 43 oz of chemical per acre, I can spread it at 3mph and use 13 gallons of water, or I can go 5mph and I'll use 10 gallons of water (just guessing) to cover the same acre, and I'll get the same result because the important thing is the amount of chemical per acre that falls on that acre, no matter how much water I use.

On one side of my brain mathematically it makes sense since it's getting the same amount of 43 oz of chemical on the acre,
but on the other side of my brain it tells me that if I'm going faster, yes all 43 oz of chemical will still all fall on that acre, but it will be less amount that falls on the weeds as I drive by because there's less water falling from the nozzles to the weeds.

I'm waiting for that moment where my brain CLICKS and I understand it, just hasn't happened yet.
