Not sure if you have a reel or you use hose in sections. But you should have a minimum of 200'. If using sections use 50' or 100' peice sections.
60' is not nearly enough.

You will never get by with 60 ft of hose. I use 200ft and there have been times where I needed even more. I know some that use up to 300 ft.

I carry 200' of solution/application hose and 100' of water hose for watering.  I would carry even more if I had the room, but I carry big 3/4".  Definitely get more hose when you can afford it (even if you can’t fit it on a reel yet).
