When to use
How to use
- Press down the yellow spout and slide back the green over-cap.
- Flip the spout over.
- Walking at a brisk pace of 1.5m/second, invert the dispenser so that the spout points towards the ground and the granules flow freely.
- Maintain the spout at a comfortable height above the ground (at least 45cm). Spread across the lawn area in even strips. Avoid overlapping. When you stop walking raise the spout to stop the flow of granules.
Maximum individual dose: 35g of product per square metre.
Any other advice?
Mowing: Avoid mowing the lawn 2-3 days before and after treatment. Do not use the first 4 mowings after treatment for mulching. They will be safe to use after being thoroughly composted for 6 months.
Watering-in: If no rain falls within 2 days, water the lawn thoroughly so that the lawn food starts to work.
Staining: Do not walk on the lawn until the product has been watered in and has fully dried, since moss killer can cause stubborn brown stains on clothes, paving slabs, etc. Brush off immediately if accidentally spilt.
What about children and pets?
In the absence of rain, Miracle-Gro® Complete 4 in 1 must be watered in, once the treated area is 100% dry they can go back on the lawn. Keep children and pets away from treated areas until 100% dry.
Where to use
Miracle-Gro® Complete 4 in 1 can be used around trees in the lawn, but avoid contact with foliage. It can also be applied where bulbs are growing in the lawn, provided it’s applied after all the bulb foliage has died down naturally. Avoid drift onto flower beds and other neighbouring plants.
