You don't need a backpack sprayer POV. You and I are small time. Just
get a two gallon sprayer from Home Depot. I don't know when to start
using Daconil. As to pesticides check with the local nursery to see if
they have the stem borer season for your area. They should be able to
tell you when to start and stop. Check with me later (before you start)
for some spraying technique tips. How is it that you are already cutting
off male flowers? Your plant was three inches high when we gave it to
you.
