My BIG sprayer was 55-60 gallons. My 10 HP Cub Cadet handled it fine. My yards pretty flat. I have way over 100 trees & bushes on my 2.3 acres, My boom is a bit over 5 ft wide. Driving by the last set of tire tracks in the grass the smaller boom gets you closer to the tracks to see them better but more passes and places for gaps between passes. The foam marker system on the sprayer SON used here a week ago was very compact, see-thru plastic soap tank held about a gallon, pump & motor about the size of tank, two 3/8 rubber tubes like gas line that run to each end of boom. Not sure how it worked but it knew which side to drop foam on. On a boom 12 ft wide I would want something to drive by. I had bought five 1# bags of a wettable powder Dimension pre-emergent crabgrass herbacide. Just toss the whole bag, or maybe it was 2 bags in each tank, and aggitate, and keep aggitating some even while spraying, the reason for the much bigger roller pump, 9 GPM and up to 150 psi. I needed 7 gpm and 60 psi, I used a TEE-Jet flat fan nozzle, less chance of plugging. I forget what each nozzel flowed, I ran tractor about half throttle, plenty of power. I had a laser photo tachometer to check engine rpm before I started spraying. I tried using a Tiny Tach twice to hold engine rpm and both failed in a very short period of time.
