how to use the Chapin hose end sprayer?

Do you use RO or tap water? Either way, why don't you just water from a large reservoir if you're set up for drainage?

I use tap, our water here in Portland is lower TDS out of the tap than my water was back in Ohio after RO (27 ppm).

I have a hose running into my grow room and that's what I want to use to water because that is the easiest and most effective.

Question though, how are you suggesting getting the water from the res to my plants? Is there some kind of sprayer that I can use directly from a res, maybe with a pump that goes into the res? I have a large rain barrel that would be perfect as a res.

Yup, that's the reason I was asking. I was using a 75 gallon rain barrel before I moved my grow space. Now I have a 70 gallon tote. Let me take some pictures, and I'll get back with ya later today.
