Hi

After Googling around various lawn sites I went to some garden
centres looking for some iron phosphate to kill moss in my lawn,
ahead of scarifying in April. Couldn't find any in the lawn product
sections, mosskiller for lawns always seems to be sold mixed in
with lawn feed. But came across some being sold as a soil
conditioner and feed.

What I can't find though is an application rate for use in the way I
have in mind.

Can anyone advise please - or could I just use the proprietry "feed
and weed" lawn products?

Thanks



Waste of time. It will come back. You need to sort out the problem.
Drainage etc.

Thankyou - I am actually intending to look at all that, but first step
is get rid of what's already there, hence my question
