Which is the best spray?

It depends on the applications as some patterns are tailored more to cleaning or gardening.

For instance, the Jet spray pattern on our guns is great for cleaning, but not ideal for watering – the higher pressure causes water to bounce off materials like bark chips and other mulches and only some of it will get to your plant. For watering, try using the Fine Rose, Aerated or Cone settings to apply the same amount of water, but with a gentler spray pattern. This will keep more of the water near the plant, where you want it.
