FAQs

How much Iron Sulphate do I mix with water?

For grass greening, mix 1-2g of Iron Sulphate per 1L of water. For turf hardening, mix 2-3g of Iron Sulphate per 1L of water. 1L of solution covers 1m².

Can I apply Iron Sulphate in the rain?

No, avoid applying Iron Sulphate when rain is expected, as it can wash away the product and reduce its effectiveness. Apply when the weather is dry.

How long before I see results?

You should start to see results, such as greener grass, within a few days of application.

Is Iron Sulphate safe for pets and children?

Keep pets and children away from the treated area until it is completely dry.

Can Iron Sulphate stain paving or concrete?

Yes, Iron Sulphate can stain paving and concrete. Avoid contact with these surfaces during application. Rinse immediately if any contact occurs.

How often should I apply Iron Sulphate?

The frequency of application depends on your lawn's needs. Generally, apply every 4-6 weeks during the growing season, or as needed to control moss or weeds.

Troubleshooting

Grass is turning black

This is likely due to over-application. Water the lawn thoroughly to dilute the solution and allow the grass to recover. Ensure you measure the product correctly in future applications.

Poor results

Ensure the product is fresh (check the expiry date) and the application rate is correct. Make sure the lawn is properly watered after application. Consider a second application after a few weeks.
