Miracle-Gro Water Soluble Lawn Food, 1 kg

Product Information

However, if your lawn is being overrun by moss or unwanted plants, you can choose an all-in-one lawn feed that will simultaneously tackle these problems as well. Use our easy-to-use spreader settings table to set Scotts® and EverGreen® spreaders correctly when using our products. It’s a slow-release fertiliser that keeps working for 60 days, strengthening plant roots and boosting the chlorophyll in your grass thanks to its high nitrogen content. Essentially, while a year-round lawn feed contains a more generic blend of nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium, an autumn feed has a special formula that supports a healthy, sturdy lawn during autumn and winter, rather than unnecessarily promoting fast growth and greening.

Plus, it’s lower in nitrate to reduce leaf growth the prepare the grass for a period of winter dormancy.As with all moss killers, this may result in some sparse patches directly after raking; however, grass will soon spread into bare areas. It will kill off any moss that’s grown over winter, and help accelerate grass growth after the cold months.

It’s suitable for medium gardens; although it states that one 8 kg bag can treat an area of up to 400 m², achievable coverage tends to be a bit less. So, rather than having to pour the feed into your own spreader, you just tip the container and point the dispenser towards the ground while walking briskly to release the granules.

Choose a granular fertiliser if your grass could benefit from sustained feeding, or liquid fertiliser if it needs a more immediate pick-me-up . The main nutrients needed are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), each of which provide your lawn with different benefits. This can also happen if you use too much – so stick to the recommended 35g per square metre, scattered onto the grass by hand and then watered in if no rain falls after two days.
