I think a spout that increases production by 90% is like the diet pill joe shmo lost 90 lb. on, results arent typical.

I'll share my data with everyone next spring - I'll have 500 of them in one bush. I already know how well that bush runs compared to the rest of the bush so this should be a good "real world" test. I'm in no way affiliated with Leader and I had to buy them just like anyone else so if they're crap or the best thing since sliced bread you'll get my unbiased opinion.

I personally would try them on gravity just to see if they help out any. I might pick a tree and suck on it all day and see if it increases flow any.
