Dosmatic MiniDos 1% Info

I just purchased the Dosmatic MiniDos 1% from:

I had reviewed all kinds of different types of fertigation type of setups and it came down to the Dosmatic or EZ-Flo. At the end of the day it came down to which would dose product into the irrigation system most evenly and based on my research the Dosmatic blows away the EZ-Flo. It took a couple hours to do the inline plumbing as I had copper lines in my basement and I used all PVC for the bypass valves and unit itself. The great thing about the unit is that it also allows a range of dilutions that are easily adjustable.

As I use it more I will update the thread with my findings as it relates to accuracy at different dilutions but the first run through was impressively consistent!

What are you running threw it? I have always wanted a ez flow but I am not sure what I would use it for.

Tonight I ran my BL Soil Conditioner through it. Will use it for milk and will try Serenade and Actinovate as it doses extremely accurately. Maybe use it for Molasses sometimes as well. Also, humates and liquid fertilizers.

How is this working for you, looks a lot better than an EZ Flo.

It's great!! I've put liquid iron, milk, molasses, kelp help and soil conditioner through it already. I do notice some minor variation with eac zone due to number/type of heads ore zone but have easily adjusted time for each to compensate accordingly. The other great thing is it adjusts, if memory serves me correctly, from .4 - 1%. I have it dialed in now so all 16 zones with proper time per zone uses just under 1 gallon total. Makes it extremely easy. I'll get a picture of the plumbing for it in the next few days.
