Aftercut 20400460 Weed and Moss Killer, Natural, 100 sq m

Product Information

Wet areas with poor drainage are likely to encourage the growth of moss. This is simply because moss needs a lot of water to be healthy and strong. If you need to, don’t hesitate to seek soil drainage options. The Supreme Green Lawn Feed Liquid Concentrate 1L is a top-quality product for maintaining a healthy and green lawn all year round. This concentrated liquid feed is based on sustainably harvested kelp that is processed using a unique cell burst process to ensure maximum retention of growth stimulants, nutrients, vitamins, and amino acids. When a selective weed killer has been applied a twisting effect of the leaves and distorted growth can be witnessed. However, it can take up to 6 weeks for the weed to die completely.

Method 7: Plants needing two or three applications of weedkillers containing MCPA. Examples includeVitax LawnClear 2, Vitax LawnClear 2 Feed and WeedLiquid (also contains fertiliser)or Weedol Lawn Weedkiller. Neither children nor pets need to be kept off the grass after using this fertiliser, meaning there’s no inconvenience of having to choose a suitable time when they’re not around, and it can be applied easily using fertiliser trollies or hand shakers. Unlike some other fertilisers, there is also no odour emitted by these granules, creating a more pleasant garden atmosphere.Therefore if you have a large area with mossy spots to treat, I suggest you plan and apply granular moss killer when weather conditions are favourable so you can get maximum results. If it rains after application, the chemical reaction will happen regardless of whether or not it’s sunny or cloudy. If you decide to use weedkillers rather than cultural control methods, here is a guide to choosing the right weedkiller for your lawns. The aim here is to target the weeds you have and use the minimum amount of product needed to carry out the control. Follow these steps: In addition to using a weed killer or a lawnmower, there are several other things you can do to prevent moss from growing on your lawn. One of the best ways to prevent moss is by aerating your lawn regularly. Aerating your lawn will help improve drainage and will allow air and sunlight to reach the soil. Watering your lawn Just a little word of warning, iron sulphate will stain flags with a brown rust colour so be careful not to get any on your patio. If you do, simply wash it down with water. You can also remove stains with a strong patio cleaner such as Smartseal Patio Clean Xtreme which I have also reviewed. I believe white vinegar or lemon juice can also remove the stains but have not tried this myself. Granular moss killers contain different components depending on the brand chosen. Some common ingredients found in these products are iron-based chemicals (ferrous sulphate), ammonium sulphate, urea peroxide, potassium nitrate etc. Moss

Using lawn feed is an excellent way to ensure we get that lush green lawn that we all want. It’s a goal that can otherwise be hard to achieve in the British climate! Watering the grass is still recommended before application, to further encourage even distribution. Just our usual reminder to read all the safety precautions on the instructions and to follow them. You’re dealing with chemicals here and, even if they’re biodegradable, it’s better to wear gloves and a mask when mixing them up and applying them. And keep people, especially kids and pets, off the sprayed areas until the safety precautions tell you it’s safe to let them loose on the lawn again. It doesn’t contain anything specific to combat weeds, so if killing weeds alongside refreshing the lawn is a priority, this may not be the best lawn feed for that purpose. However, healthier lawns in general do stay more resistant to both weeds and moss. It takes longer to see results during dry months as water needs to be added before they can start killing moss (which rarely happens during winter). Despite taking a week or two to see real results, I found this type of moss killer too slow and tedious to use on larger areas with stubborn patches of moss growth.Granule sizes vary depending on the type of material used for products ranging from 1-3 millimetres. Weed killers work by killing the moss and any other plants that are growing in your lawn. Some weed killers are more effective than others, so it’s important to choose the right one. in 1 easy application – greens grass, kills a range of weeds, kills moss in your lawn and fertilises the grass. This product improved turf quality and colour significantly, and gave very consistent improvement across the lawn. The grass greened up swiftly, showing good, healthy growth.

The usual advice is to scarify or rake your lawn before applying a moss killer to prevent the moss from spreading; in theory, this prevents it from growing. Moss is frequently well-rooted in the grass, and an application of moss killer on an unclarified lawn simply does not enter into the ground, it merely kills the surface of the moss. When applied on newly germinated seed, this fertiliser can really boost growth, able to help with reseeding bare patches as well as improve the general overall health of the garden. It might seem like a lot of extra effort, to have to apply a treatment to your garden every few months to keep the grass looking nice.There are only certain brands that are safe for use during dry weather conditions so it can be harder to find the right product that will work for your type of mossy area (if you’re looking at one with a “dry weather” label, then yes it’s suitable).
