hose end sprayer pressure

[rymor]

Trying out a hose-end sprayer this season as the plant summer outside.

Been using the ortho brand 32 oz model on the shower output setting.

I feel that the pressure coming out of the sprayer is almost a bit much for some of the potted orchids.

Is there a way to reduce this pressure without messing with the calculated fertilizer output? Would a hose shut-off valve work here to reduce the pressure of the water entering the hose-end sprayer?
