Hose end sprayer w/ Prodiamine WDG?

I'm looking for a faster way to get down my Prodiamine Water Dispersible Granule (WDG) for my 16,000 sq ft bermuda lawn. Last fall I used my 4 gallon backpack sprayer. But I had to refill it 4 times and it took long to cover the entire lawn. I considered purchasing a pull behind sprayer (20 gallon as an example), but I'm running our of room to store things and would not use it much throughout the year.

I am wondering if a hose end sprayer bottle would work with a WDG product? I have not really used hose end sprayers before and have no idea if that would even work? My guess is this would not work, as for the granular prodimine probably would not be mixed properly.

Anyone done this before? Thoughts?
I tried using a hose in sprayer with a liquid insecticide and I just couldn't get the application rate correct. I even diluted the chemical in the sprayer cup to lower the viscosity.

I was using the Chapin G362 sprayer.
