Lawn Magic

FAQs

Can Lawn Magic be used at the same time as Flower Power Lawn Feed, Weed & Mosskiller?

They shouldn’t be applied at the same time – as this will overfeed the lawn – but they can be used in tandem to produce a beautiful lawn. First, apply Flower Power Lawn Feed, Weed & Mosskiller in March or April. From the end of May, if the weeds have all gone, you can start using Lawn Magic. If any weeds remain or have just emerged, apply Flower Power Lawn Feed, Weed & Mosskiller once more, then start using Lawn Magic from July.

Can Lawn Magic be used on newly turfed or newly seeded lawns?

Yes. For newly turfed lawns, apply at half the normal dilution rate immediately after laying the turf, then use at the normal rate every four to five weeks after that from March to October.

For recently seeded lawns, apply Lawn Magic at half the recommended rate as soon as the grass seed germinates, then use at the full rate every four to five weeks afterwards from March to October.

How often should I apply Lawn Magic?

For best results and a lovely green lawn, apply every four to five weeks from March to October. Regular use has a cumulative effect. This is how professional greenkeepers treat their grass, and the lawn gets, and looks, better and better with each application.

Can I apply Lawn Magic more frequently than every four weeks?

There’s no point in doing this, as every four weeks is perfectly adequate for a strong, healthy, green lawn. Also, using it more frequently could overfeed the grass, and it’s a waste of your time, effort and money!

I accidentally spilled some of the Lawn Magic concentrate on the grass. What should I do?

The best way to help the grass recover is to apply copious amounts of water immediately, or as soon as possible afterwards. This will help wash it out of the grass rooting zone. Don’t panic, as in almost every case we’ve heard of, the grass has shown recovery within several days after watering. While the leaves of the grass may look burnt and dead, the roots probably aren’t completely dead, and will recover naturally.

Can I apply Lawn Magic in a pressure sprayer?

Yes, you can, but it’ll be a much slower process than using a watering can! The dilution rate is the same as when using a watering can. The key thing is to get 100ml of concentrated Lawn Magic onto 10 square metres(12 square yards) of lawn. So, for instance, using a 5-litre capacity sprayer, use 100ml of Lawn Magic and 5-litres of water to cover 10 square metres, and so on.

Can I apply Lawn Magic in a knapsack sprayer?

Yes, you can. The ratio for a knapsack sprayer is four parts water to one part Lawn Magic. For instance, one litre of Lawn Magic and 4-litres of water mixed together will cover 100 square metres (120 square yards) of lawn. It’s important for this quantity to fully cover 100 square metres.

Lawn Magic may stain shoes, patios and decking, so don’t walk on the grass after application.

Is Lawn Magic safe to use on lawns used by children and pets?

Yes. Lawn Magic is regarded as being safe to children, pets and other animals. Obviously, Richard uses it at home, and he has a dog called Rosie.

But we recommend keeping children and pets off the lawn for up to two to three hours after application to give it time to absorb into the soil and dry. This is mainly to stop them getting it on their feet or paws, which they could then transfer to solid surfaces, carpets etc, where it could cause staining.
