Meant to post this here....
As I mentioned in the implement alley section, me and the boys rebuilt my 50 gallon 3 pt sprayer over the weekend and put down some 2,4-D on my hay fields.
On the property where the fields are located, there is a small camp and with it a fairly a modern type well with submersible pump and pressure tank. Nothing unusual about this set-up IMHO - probably what everyone else would have at their house.
One of the questions I'm asking is - if I'm using the well/pump to fill my 50 gallon sprayer, is there any danger of burning it out or otherwise damaging it. I'm filling the tank to 25 gallons, stopping, adding the chemical and filling to the 50 gal mark. My thinking is - I'm probably not using any more water than my kids when taking they are taking show - one right after another - as they do. The difference is my house is on "city" property and no well/pump is involved. We are probably at least 50 ft or more via hose from the house and well location to minimize any potential spill hazards right at the well site.
Any caution for filling the 50 gallon tank from a well/pump? Am I asking for pump trouble?

Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
