            | SoCalGary | Dana Point, CA | What is the preferred method of applying a soil drench (either a tea or maybe other fertilizers for this point in the season) to the entire plant?
 Is this typically done through the drip tape/line watering setup?
 
 Also, for applying foliar spray, do growers typically use a handheld or backpack pump sprayer or maybe a hose-end sprayer?

            | Gerald UK | Watlington, UK | Tea will block drip lines, also drip lines will have needed to be have laid down back in May, to allow the plant time to grow over them.Personally I used a battery-powered pump sprayer with a high volume nozzle that can cope with tea without getting clogged up.
