    I had heard of Ripple but could not place it then when you made the Sanford and son reference- that’s it. One of my favorite Redd Foxx jokes is when he said he grew up so poor that if he would not been born a boy he would not have had any thing to play with.

    Yeah they run a liquid "planter band" though the planters, then they run a liquid "cultivating band" through the cultivators... That's all been done already.

    Now they are doing a liquid "water run"... It is liquid fertilizer that is injected into the irrigation main line, and the irrigation water carries it through the irrigation sprinklers. They do the same thing for grain.

    Dry fertilizer is pretty much dead this time of year, except for what we haul to the airstrip for the crop dusters to fly on. Usually flown on dry fertilizer is an emergency dose to boost a macro nutrient that the crop needs in order to gain a high yield.

    Liquid "water run" serves a similar purpose... But it's a smaller dose applied repeatedly as the season progresses. Running fertilizer in irrigation water is called Chemigating... It requires a special license from the state. And it must be done in a very particular way to ensure the fertilizer can NOT back feed to the water source. I used to be licensed as a Private Applicator, meaning I could Chemigate my own personal or family or employers property... But I could not be paid specifically for doing so.
