Hi We did it at the seed plant I worked at for a couple years. It was a big craze then, when fertilizer prices were higher, but not sure if the guy still does it after I quit there. I know he was into all sorts of goofy potions as well for seed treatments around the same time.
When I was on the spray trailer we used about 7 25kg or so bags a fill, then pre mixed it to dissolve in a chem handler, prior to sucking it in the sprayer. I do know if you get it in the handler and the sprayer breaks down before you use it, it will settle out and be ignorant to do anything with after a day or so. if you mix it in make sure you use it. Thats my bad experience from trying to do something with the solid lump of sugar in the bottom of the handler. I guess it would do the same in a spray tank also if left due to bad weather for a day or so! Good luck if you try it. Regards Robert
