Switching from 5/16th to 3/16th drops?

you who use, do you flush your lines after using peroxide ?

No, I do mine in place and pull them dry with vacuum pump and then let them sit for a week before coiling them up for the off season. Peroxide breaks down into pure water over time. Use food grade only.

I use calcium chloride.....pump the lines full....leave it sit for a day, flush them with warm water......lines are up year round.

You leave the spouts in the tree or pulled and put in the tee when flushing?

spouts are pulled and stuck in the tees

1280x.03 divided by .35 (the active ingredient strength of your concentrate) = 109.71 ounces of Hydrogen Peroxide into 1170.29 ounces of permeate or water

put the 109.71 ounces in your container and fill to 10 gallons

for one gallon 10.97 ounces 35% in a container and fill to one gallon

Of course it's easier just to round up and make it a bit stronger.
