Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun

Precision Irrigation Gun: A Rechargeable Hose-End Device for Fertilizer, Microbes, and Plant Treatment

By Ronen Kolton Yehuda (Messiah King RKY), June 2025

🔍 Abstract

This article introduces a novel irrigation tool: a rechargeable hose-end spray gun that allows the direct loading of fertilizer, beneficial microorganisms, and plant treatment solutions. Upon pressing a trigger or button, the contents are automatically mixed with flowing irrigation water using water pressure, enabling controlled fertigation or microbial application with high precision. The concept merges portability, user simplicity, and real-time treatment delivery for home gardeners, greenhouse operators, and field workers alike.


🌱 Introduction

Modern irrigation methods often separate watering from treatment. While there are commercial inline fertilizer injectors and venturi systems, they typically require pre-installed setups, pressure regulators, or complex valves. In contrast, small-scale users and agile gardeners need a solution that is fast, mobile, and easy to reload — similar in simplicity to a spray gun, but with smart internal mixing.

This is where the Precision Irrigation Gun (PIG) concept emerges.


🔧 Concept Overview

📌 Main Features

  • Hose-End Integration
    Connects directly to standard garden hose threads (¾" GHT).
    Seals tightly, prevents backflow.

  • Rechargeable Treatment Cartridge
    The gun includes an internal cartridge or tank (e.g., 200–1000 ml) which can be loaded with:

    • Liquid fertilizer

    • Microbial cultures (e.g., BacillusTrichoderma, mycorrhizae)

    • Natural pesticide, fungicide, or enzymatic solutions

  • Trigger-Activated Mixing Valve
    Pressing a trigger or button opens a control valve, allowing water pressure to draw a controlled amount of solution into the stream.

  • Internal Mixing Chamber
    A turbulence zone or diffuser ensures thorough mixing before the water exits the nozzle.

  • Adjustable Flow Ratios
    The gun may feature adjustable concentration settings (e.g., 1:100, 1:200) or automatic dosing.


🧪 Use Cases

ApplicationExample
Urban gardeningFertilizing balcony plants with NPK+microbes
GreenhousesApplying beneficial microbes directly to roots
Orchard useTreating young trees or localized soil zones
Organic farmingDelivering compost tea or live bio-extracts
Home lawnsFeeding and conditioning grass without pre-mixing

🧫 Microbial Compatibility

To be effective, the gun must ensure:

  • No extreme pressure drop that destroys microbial cells

  • No chemical residues that affect microbial viability

  • Food-grade materials for liquid-contact surfaces

  • Removable parts for cleaning and sterilization


⚙️ Internal Mechanism (Suggested)

  1. Refill Port: Open-top or valve-sealed fill area for adding treatment fluid.

  2. Non-Return Valve: Prevents backflow into the cartridge.

  3. Venturi Trigger or Button: Opens suction path using flow pressure.

  4. Internal Filter: Ensures no solids enter from unrefined solutions.

  5. Mixing Chamber: Creates turbulent blend with irrigation stream.

  6. Nozzle: Adjustable spray pattern (stream, cone, mist, soak).


🧯 Optional Smart Features

  • LCD or LED concentration display

  • Replaceable treatment pods

  • Bluetooth dose-tracking for crop management apps

  • Temperature-safe storage for microbial shelf life


🏭 Market Gap and Innovation

While various fertilizer siphons and hose sprayers exist, they do not:

  • Allow manual reloads of complex biological solutions

  • Offer push-button activation during flow

  • Maintain high compatibility with live microbial agents

This device fills the gap between professional fertigation systems and casual gardening tools, making it ideal for small-scale professionals and serious hobbyists.


🌍 Sustainability and Efficiency

  • Reduces fertilizer overuse

  • Limits environmental runoff

  • Promotes microbial soil health

  • Supports circular agriculture with compost-derived extracts


📦 Future Development

🔚 Conclusion

The Rechargeable Precision Irrigation Gun transforms how we deliver nutrients, microbes, and treatments during routine watering. By combining user-friendly design with real-time mixing and dosing, it empowers growers to nourish their plants in a smarter, more sustainable way. Whether in a greenhouse, orchard, or backyard, this tool represents a new step in accessible, regenerative agriculture.

Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun: Possible Operating Architectures for Nutrient, Microbial, and Cleaning Delivery

Design Options for a Smart Hose-End Treatment and Cleaning Gun

By Ronen Kolton Yehuda (MKR: Messiah King RKY)

Introduction

The Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun is intended as a flexible hose-end device that can deliver plant nutrition, microbial solutions, soil treatments, and in some versions also cleaning agents such as soap or detergents. Its value depends not only on the product concept itself, but also on the internal operating architecture. Different users and markets may require different mechanisms depending on cost, precision, maintenance, durability, and compatibility with sensitive materials such as living microbes.

This article presents several possible engineering architectures for how such a device can operate. Some are simple and low-cost, while others are more advanced and suitable for premium or professional versions. The goal is not to lock the product into one single mechanism, but to define a family of viable systems.


Core Functional Goal

The device should be able to do one or more of the following:

  • deliver water only

  • inject treatment only when the user activates it

  • support replaceable or refillable cartridges

  • work with fertilizers, microbial inoculants, biostimulants, soaps, or detergents

  • avoid backflow and contamination

  • provide controllable spray patterns

  • remain practical for gardens, orchards, greenhouses, and household cleaning


Architecture 1: Passive Venturi Suction System

How it works

This is the classic hose-end injection principle. Water flows through a narrowed chamber, creating pressure drop and suction. That suction draws liquid from the cartridge into the water stream.

Main components

  • hose connector

  • venturi chamber

  • suction tube

  • cartridge or reservoir

  • on/off dosing valve

  • spray nozzle

Advantages

  • simple

  • low cost

  • no battery needed

  • easy to manufacture

  • few moving parts

Limitations

  • dosing accuracy depends on water pressure

  • weaker with viscous liquids

  • may be less suitable for highly controlled dosing

  • can stress some microbial solutions if geometry is too narrow

Best for

  • low-cost consumer model

  • home gardeners

  • simple fertilizer and soap delivery


Architecture 2: Pump-in-Cartridge System

How it works

The cartridge itself contains a small pump that pushes treatment into the water line. The gun becomes more like a control body, while the cartridge becomes an active dosing module.

The pump may be:

  • miniature electric pump

  • manual plunger pump

  • squeeze-driven diaphragm

  • spring-loaded metering pump

Main idea

Instead of relying only on water pressure to suck the material, the cartridge actively delivers it.

Advantages

  • more precise dosing

  • can handle thicker liquids better

  • allows independent control from hose pressure

  • better for premium versions

  • cartridge can become a smart replaceable module

Limitations

  • more complex

  • higher manufacturing cost

  • pump durability must be tested

  • requires sealing, power, or mechanical trigger transfer

Best for

  • premium agricultural tool

  • smart dosing version

  • thicker nutrients, soaps, or concentrated formulations


Architecture 3: Electric Micro-Pump Inside the Gun Body

How it works

The cartridge is passive, but the gun body contains a rechargeable electric pump that draws liquid from the cartridge and meters it into the water stream.

Main components

  • rechargeable battery

  • micro-pump

  • water sealing becomes more important

  • more complex servicing

Best for

  • advanced retail model

  • greenhouse or professional use

  • versions with app, display, or programmable dosage


Architecture 4: Manual Trigger Pump System

How it works

The trigger itself mechanically pumps treatment into the water line. Every press activates a small piston or diaphragm that meters a small amount of liquid.

Variants

  • one pump stroke per trigger press

  • continuous metering while trigger is held

  • adjustable stroke length for different dose levels

Advantages

  • no electricity required

  • more direct user control

  • relatively low cost compared to electronic systems

  • can be built robustly

Limitations

  • less smooth than electric metering

  • user effort affects consistency

  • may be less ideal for long continuous application

Best for

  • rugged field model

  • mid-cost design

  • portable non-electric versions


Architecture 5: Pressurized Cartridge System

How it works

The cartridge is pre-pressurized, or pressure is built manually by the user before operation. When the user activates the selector, the stored pressure pushes the treatment into the line.

Pressure methods

  • hand pump built into cartridge cap

  • compressible air chamber

  • spring bladder

  • replaceable gas capsule in premium versions

Advantages

  • independent from hose suction performance

  • useful for intermittent dosing

  • can work with thicker liquids

  • good for compact cartridge modules

Limitations

  • pressure declines over time unless renewed

  • added safety and sealing requirements

  • more complex cartridge design

Best for

  • portable high-performance cartridge systems

  • concentrated inputs

  • modular product family


Architecture 6: Squeeze Cartridge System

How it works

The reservoir is a flexible bottle or pouch. The user squeezes it manually to inject material into the water stream or onto the target directly.

Advantages

  • very simple

  • low cost

  • easy to understand

  • lightweight

  • no electronics and no internal pump required

Limitations

  • less precise

  • depends on user hand pressure

  • not ideal for large-scale or repeated dosing

  • may not integrate as elegantly into a premium device

Best for

  • entry-level model

  • hobby gardening

  • emergency or low-resource settings


Architecture 7: Dual-Line Selector System

How it works

The gun contains two separate intake lines and two separate cartridges:

  • one for plant treatment

  • one for soap, detergent, or cleaning agents

A selector switch routes the system to one source or the other.

Advantages

  • no need to swap cartridges constantly

  • cleaner workflow

  • supports true dual-use device

  • can reduce contamination risk

Limitations

  • bigger device body

  • more tubing and valves

  • must be carefully designed to prevent crossover

Best for

  • hybrid plant-care and cleaning model

  • greenhouse and orchard operators

  • premium home and garden version


Architecture 8: Replaceable Head Module System

How it works

The base gun remains the same, but the user changes the functional head:

  • fertigation head

  • microbial-safe head

  • detergent-cleaning head

  • jet-cleaning head

Each head contains its own internal pathway, nozzle design, and possibly metering element.

Advantages

  • modular product family

  • easier cleaning and maintenance

  • safer separation between functions

  • strong commercial accessory model

Limitations

  • user must keep track of modules

  • connection reliability is critical

  • added tooling for multiple heads

Best for

  • scalable product line

  • retail ecosystem with accessories

  • professional users who need flexibility


Architecture 9: Gravity-Assisted Reservoir System

How it works

A top-mounted reservoir sits above the mixing point, and gravity helps the flow of treatment into the water line when a valve opens.

Advantages

  • mechanically simple

  • minimal power needs

  • low part count

Limitations

  • depends on orientation

  • not ideal for handheld use at all angles

  • dosing precision is limited

Best for

  • fixed-position applications

  • bench-mounted greenhouse version

  • simple semi-stationary system


Architecture 10: Smart Metering Cartridge with Chip Recognition

How it works

Each cartridge contains not only fluid but also an identification element such as a chip, code, or magnetic key. The gun automatically recognizes whether the cartridge contains:

  • fertilizer

  • microbes

  • foliar spray

  • detergent

  • sanitizer

The gun then adjusts allowed spray mode, flow limits, or warnings.

Advantages

  • prevents mistakes

  • supports smart lockouts

  • strengthens brand ecosystem

  • useful for professional and commercial scaling

Limitations

  • higher cost

  • proprietary system

  • more electronics and software needed

Best for

  • smart premium platform

  • professional growers

  • future connected versions


Best Architecture Families by Market Level

1. Basic Consumer Model

Best choices:

  • passive venturi suction

  • squeeze cartridge

  • manual trigger pump

These are simple, affordable, and practical.

2. Mid-Level Prosumer Model

Best choices:

  • manual trigger pump

  • pressurized cartridge

  • dual-line selector system

These offer stronger functionality without requiring full electronics.

3. Premium Professional Model

Best choices:

  • electric pump in gun body

  • pump-in-cartridge

  • smart metering cartridge

  • replaceable head module system

These support precision, modularity, and higher margins.


Microbe Compatibility Considerations

If the system is meant to deliver living microbes, some architectures are better than others.

Preferable for microbes

  • gentle manual pump

  • wide-bore electric metering

  • low-shear venturi geometry

  • dedicated microbial cartridge and head

Use with caution

  • very narrow venturi channels

  • aggressive high-speed impellers

  • detergent-sharing paths without strict washing protocol

The internal bores should remain relatively smooth and wide, and the device should minimize sharp turbulence or unnecessary pressure shock if live bio-inputs are a core use.


Cleaning and Soap Compatibility Considerations

If the product also supports soap or detergent, then the system should include:

  • chemical-resistant seals

  • dedicated cleaning cartridge or pathway

  • flushing mode

  • backflow prevention

  • clear visual marking between plant and cleaning use

For hybrid models, a dual-line or replaceable-head system is stronger than a single shared path unless the wash protocol is very reliable.


Most Realistic Product Strategy

A strong commercial strategy may be to develop this concept in stages:

Version 1

Passive venturi or manual trigger model
Affordable and easy to launch.

Version 2

Dual-cartridge selector model
Better for plant treatment plus cleaning.

Version 3

Rechargeable smart pump model
For premium agriculture and greenhouse markets.

Version 4

Modular platform
Interchangeable heads, coded cartridges, smart control, professional accessories.

This approach allows the invention to start simple and grow into a family of products.


Conclusion

The Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun does not need to depend on one single mechanism. It can be developed as a flexible platform with several valid architectures, each suited to a different market and performance level.

The most important design paths include:

  • passive venturi injection

  • manual trigger pumping

  • electric micro-pump systems

  • pump-in-cartridge modules

  • dual-line selector designs

  • modular replaceable heads

  • smart coded cartridges

Together, these options show that the concept is not only possible, but expandable. The invention can exist as a low-cost household sprayer, a dual-use plant-and-cleaning tool, or a premium smart agricultural dosing platform.

This makes the Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun not just one product, but a potentially broad and scalable product family.

Water-Pressure and Gravity-Driven Cartridge Architectures for the Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun

Alternative Injection Systems for Plant Treatment, Soap, and Cleaning Materials

By Ronen Kolton Yehuda (MKR: Messiah King RKY)

Abstract

The Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun can be developed through several operating architectures beyond standard suction-based injection. One important design family uses the pressure of the irrigation water itself, or gravity, to move treatment materials from a container into the spray stream. In these systems, the water line does not only deliver irrigation; it also serves as the driving force that pushes, compresses, dissolves, or carries fertilizers, microbes, soap, or other treatment materials. This article presents a structured concept for water-pressure-driven and gravity-assisted cartridge architectures, including piston systems, diaphragm systems, inner-pouch cartridges, wash-through dilution chambers, and elevated gravity-fed reservoirs. These approaches may offer practical, low-energy, and scalable alternatives for agricultural, horticultural, and household applications.

Introduction

Most hose-end treatment devices rely on suction, venturi flow, or active pumping. These are valid approaches, but they are not the only ones. Another strong engineering path is to use the irrigation water itself as the motive force acting on the treatment container.

In such systems, the water can press on a piston, deform a flexible membrane, collapse an inner pouch, or flow into a chamber that dissolves and washes out the active material. In other versions, gravity assists the downward flow of treatment material from an elevated container into the irrigation path.

This design logic is important because it may simplify operation, reduce the need for electrical or mechanical pumps, and open new possibilities for cartridge-based dosing. It may also allow the Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun to support multiple types of materials, including liquid fertilizers, microbial suspensions, soap solutions, soluble powders, or cleaning agents.

The purpose of this article is to define this family of architectures clearly and show how it can be used as part of the broader Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun concept.

Core Design Principle

The main principle is simple: the irrigation water is not only the carrier stream. It is also part of the actuation system.

This can happen in several ways:

  • the water pushes on the container from one side

  • the water enters an outer chamber and compresses an inner treatment chamber

  • the water enters a cartridge and gradually dissolves or washes out the contents

  • the water stream assists gravity-fed movement from an elevated reservoir

This family of systems can be divided into two main categories:

  1. Separated-pressure systems
    Water applies pressure to the treatment material through a barrier or structure, without directly mixing into the whole concentrate reservoir.

  2. Direct-contact wash-through systems
    Water enters the treatment chamber itself, dissolves or dilutes the material, and carries it onward.

A third related category is:

  1. Gravity-assisted systems
    The treatment material is positioned above the mixing point and flows downward, sometimes with water helping entrainment or transport.

Architecture 1: Piston-Separated Water Pressure Cartridge

Concept

In this architecture, the treatment cartridge contains two internal zones separated by a movable piston. One side is the water-pressure chamber, and the other side contains the treatment material. When irrigation water enters the pressure side, it pushes the piston forward. The piston then pushes the treatment material out through its own outlet.

How it works

  • irrigation water enters the pressure chamber

  • water pressure drives the piston forward

  • piston displaces fertilizer, soap, or treatment liquid

  • treatment exits through a dedicated outlet

  • the material then joins the spray path or mixing chamber

Advantages

This architecture provides clean separation between water and treatment. It does not require an electric pump, and it can work in different orientations because the motion is pressure-driven rather than gravity-dependent. It also allows a controlled mechanical dosing principle if the piston travel and outlet dimensions are properly designed.

Applications

This is suitable for liquid fertilizers, cleaning agents, liquid biostimulants, and other materials that should remain separated from the driving water until final injection.

Architecture 2: Flexible Diaphragm or Membrane Cartridge

Concept

Instead of using a rigid piston, the cartridge contains a flexible diaphragm or deformable membrane that separates the water-pressure side from the treatment side. Water pressure bends or pushes the membrane, which in turn pushes the treatment material out.

How it works

  • irrigation water enters one chamber

  • pressure deforms the membrane

  • membrane compresses the treatment chamber

  • treatment exits through a separate outlet

  • the material enters the downstream spray or mixing path

Advantages

This system can be simpler than a sliding piston in some designs because it reduces friction surfaces and moving seals. It may also be easier to make as a sealed replaceable cartridge. Since the water and treatment remain separated, it is useful for materials that must not be pre-diluted or contaminated.

Applications

This architecture can be suitable for fertilizers, detergents, bio-inputs, and replaceable consumer cartridges.

Architecture 3: Bag-in-Container or Inner-Pouch Compression System

Concept

This architecture uses an inner flexible pouch or sub-container placed inside a rigid outer cartridge. The treatment material is stored in the inner bag. Irrigation water enters the space between the rigid shell and the inner pouch. As that space fills with pressurized water, the pouch is compressed, and its contents are forced out.

How it works

  • outer cartridge shell remains rigid

  • inner pouch holds treatment material

  • irrigation water enters the outer pressure space

  • the pouch collapses under pressure

  • treatment exits through a dedicated line

Why it is important

This design strongly matches the idea of a sub-container inside the container. It is one of the clearest realizations of a water-driven cartridge system. The water itself becomes the pressure source, while the treatment remains protected inside the inner pouch.

Advantages

The system allows good separation between carrier water and treatment material. It can work whether the cartridge is above, below, or beside the gun, depending on the outlet design and pressure management. It may also allow easy replacement of treatment pouches without replacing the outer hardware.

Applications

This is especially attractive for modular cartridges, premium refill systems, concentrated liquids, and products where residue separation matters.

Architecture 4: Direct Water Flood or Wash-Through Cartridge

Concept

In this version, water enters the treatment chamber itself rather than acting through a barrier. It washes through the contents, dissolving, diluting, suspending, or carrying them outward.

How it works

  • irrigation water enters the treatment chamber

  • water dissolves, mixes, or mobilizes the material

  • the resulting solution exits through the spray path

  • concentration changes over time depending on product form and flow

Variants

This design may be used with:

  • liquid concentrates

  • powders

  • crystals

  • tablets

  • gels

  • soluble pellets

Water entry can be from the top, bottom, or side. Internal baffles or swirl channels may help wash the contents more evenly.

Advantages

This design may be simple and low-cost. It can also support solid or semi-solid treatment formats, which are harder to handle in some pump systems.

Limitations

It may provide less precise dosing than separated-pressure systems, especially if the material dissolves progressively. It may also be less suitable for delicate microbes if high turbulence or prolonged wet storage damages viability.

Applications

This is useful for simple fertigation products, dissolvable cartridges, soap inserts, or low-cost garden systems.

Architecture 5: Gravity-Fed Elevated Reservoir

Concept

In this architecture, the treatment reservoir is placed above the gun or above the mixing point, allowing the contents to flow downward by gravity. The irrigation water stream may simply carry the descending liquid onward, or a small valve may meter its entrance.

How it works

  • treatment reservoir is positioned above the mixing zone

  • a valve opens the outlet path

  • gravity causes the material to flow downward

  • irrigation water mixes with or carries the material

Advantages

This architecture is mechanically simple and does not require the water to enter the treatment chamber as a pressure source. In some bench-mounted, greenhouse, or backpack-supported configurations, gravity can be a useful assistive force.

Limitations

Pure handheld operation at changing angles may make gravity systems less reliable unless the reservoir is mounted in a controlled orientation.

Applications

This may be useful in fixed-position or semi-fixed systems, greenhouse benches, or specialized top-mounted product versions.

Architecture 6: Gravity Plus Water-Assisted Pickup

Concept

This is a hybrid between gravity feed and water-induced entrainment. The treatment material flows downward from an elevated container, while the irrigation water stream helps pull, carry, or further meter it into the output path.

How it works

  • container is positioned above the pickup zone

  • treatment begins descending under gravity

  • moving irrigation water helps entrain the descending liquid

  • a valve or channel controls rate

Advantages

This can give more flexibility than pure gravity feed and may allow softer handling of some materials. It may also improve consistency compared with gravity alone.

Applications

This can be useful where some gravitational flow is available but water assistance is needed to stabilize output.

Architecture 7: Water-Filled Outer Chamber with Replaceable Inner Capsules

Concept

A more modular version of the inner-pouch or separated-pressure concept uses a reusable gun body and outer pressure shell, while the treatment itself comes in replaceable internal capsules. Water enters the outer shell and compresses the capsule, or acts through a membrane structure integrated into the capsule.

Benefits

This can support a retail cartridge system with:

  • fertilizer capsules

  • microbial capsules

  • soap capsules

  • cleaning capsules

Different capsules may be optimized for different materials while using the same basic gun platform.

Commercial significance

This architecture could become a strong product ecosystem because it supports reusable hardware with consumable cartridges.

Orientation Possibilities: Up, Down, or Side

One of the useful aspects of these systems is that the container does not need to be restricted to only one position.

Top-mounted

A top-mounted cartridge may support gravity-assisted flow or simpler refill access.

Bottom-mounted

A bottom-mounted cartridge can help maintain a compact handheld form, especially if pressure or diaphragm systems are used.

Side-mounted

A side-mounted cartridge can improve balance or allow dual-cartridge designs, for example one side for plant treatment and one side for soap or cleaning agents.

The best orientation depends on the selected mechanism. Gravity-only systems are more sensitive to orientation. Piston, diaphragm, and pressure-compression systems are generally more flexible.

Comparison of Main Water-Driven Concepts

Separated-pressure systems

Examples:

  • piston-separated cartridge

  • diaphragm cartridge

  • bag-in-container system

These are cleaner, more controlled, and better when separation matters.

Direct-contact systems

Examples:

  • wash-through cartridge

  • dissolving chamber

  • soluble insert system

These are simpler and may be more suitable for low-cost models or soluble products.

Gravity-assisted systems

Examples:

  • top reservoir feed

  • gravity plus water pickup

These are elegant in the right format, especially where position is controlled.

Advantages of Water-Pressure and Gravity Architectures

These architectures offer several benefits:

  • they reduce the need for electric pumps

  • they may simplify the device

  • they can support replaceable cartridges

  • they allow different mounting positions

  • they open the door to solid, liquid, gel, or pouch-based product formats

  • they can improve separation between irrigation water and stored treatment material

  • they fit well with a modular product family

They also expand the intellectual and engineering range of the Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun concept.

Design Challenges

These systems also bring challenges that must be solved through engineering:

  • sealing between water and treatment chambers

  • prevention of leakage

  • controlled dosing consistency

  • resistance to fertilizers, microbes, soaps, and detergents

  • cleaning and reusability

  • compatibility with different viscosities

  • backflow protection into the water line

If cleaning chemicals and plant treatments are both supported, separation protocols or dedicated cartridges become especially important.

Best Use Cases

These architectures may be useful in:

  • greenhouse fertigation

  • orchard spot treatment

  • balcony and urban gardening

  • household outdoor cleaning

  • nursery tray sanitation

  • low-power field kits

  • educational or NGO agriculture projects

Some versions are better for premium reusable systems, while others are suitable for simpler consumer tools.

Strategic Product Development Path

A practical product family could be developed in stages:

Entry version

Direct wash-through cartridge or simple gravity-assisted feed.

Mid-level version

Piston or diaphragm-separated cartridge.

Premium version

Inner-pouch modular cartridge with selector logic or dual-use plant-and-cleaning support.

Advanced version

Smart cartridge recognition combined with water-pressure actuation.

This staged path would allow the Push-to-Treat concept to evolve from simple tools into a broader platform.

Conclusion

The Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun can be designed not only around suction and pumping, but also around water-pressure-driven and gravity-assisted cartridge systems. In these architectures, the irrigation water itself becomes the motive force acting on the treatment reservoir, either by pressing through a piston, diaphragm, or inner pouch, or by entering and washing through the material directly. In other versions, gravity helps the material descend into the water path.

These concepts are practical, technically meaningful, and commercially valuable. They enlarge the design possibilities of the Push-to-Treat system and strengthen it as a flexible platform for fertilizers, microbes, soil treatments, soaps, and cleaning materials.

This makes the Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun not only a hose-end sprayer, but a broader family of cartridge-actuated treatment tools built around the intelligent use of water pressure and gravity.

Crystalline Fertilizer-Compatible Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun


By Ronen Kolton Yehuda (Messiah King RKY), June 2025


🔍 Introduction

The Push-to-Treat Irrigation Gun is a modern agricultural and gardening tool designed for controlled delivery of treatments during regular watering. With its latest compatibility for crystalline fertilizers, the tool now supports a wider range of nutrients and use cases—including dry fertilizers that can be dissolved directly in the device’s cartridge. This enhancement increases flexibility, reduces waste, and simplifies how plants receive essential minerals.


🧪 What Are Crystalline Fertilizers?

Crystalline or powder-based fertilizers are dry, water-soluble formulations that contain macronutrients (like nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) and micronutrients (like zinc, iron, or manganese). These are often more concentrated and cost-effective than liquid alternatives.

Common examples include:

  • 20-20-20 NPK All-Purpose Mix

  • Iron Sulfate (FeSO₄)

  • Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt)

  • Bloom Booster Crystals (High-P, Low-N)


🛠️ How the Irrigation Gun Works with Crystals

The Push-to-Treat Gun has a refillable cartridge that can accept either pre-mixed liquids or water-dissolved crystalline solutions. The system then injects the mixture into the water stream when the user presses the activation button.

Two recommended use methods:

  1. Pre-Mix Method

    • Mix crystals with water externally

    • Pour the liquid into the cartridge

    • Begin watering with on-demand treatment

  2. In-Cartridge Dissolution

    • Add water-soluble crystals directly into the cartridge

    • Fill with water and shake

    • Allow partial time for full dissolution

    • Use as needed

Built-in fine filters prevent undissolved particles from clogging the system, and the cartridge can be removed, rinsed, and reused.
