Use warm water to dissolve the sulphate of iron, it works much better.

If you dilute and water on your own urine it is much cheaper and more environmentally friendly. Your nitrogen and phosphate don’t end up in the local sewage works and then in your local river. Never pee down the loo! Easy. The only other thing I might add is some magnesium to optimise chlorophyll production. But this depends on your soil. I need lots but some soils dont need any extra.

I would kinda just like to see you make up a batch from scratch that would cover say 100 square meters of lawn. Add X amount of iron add X amount of sulphate of ammonia & add X of seaweed & then mix that together with X of water. Really simple for simple people like me.

Ай бұрын
Yes. Would be great. Because i have a Problem. For example. 100m2 you need 100-200g iron Sulfate and 100-200 litre of water. That does not fit to . For nitrogen you need less water for 100m2. In my opinion it is not practicable because you have to spread out each substance in its own because all need different quantities of water per m2
@larstolkmitt5959
Ай бұрын
For that reason you cant mix a all together! You have to spread out each substance like nitrogen, iron sulfate and ammonium sulfate on its own. Ist that really practicable? For my lawn with 650 m2 it would take a long time to spread so many times.

@@larstolkmitt5959yeah that 100litres of water for a 100m2 lawn is stupid! He's done a better video before which worked out at 24ml of water per gram of ammonium sulphate so find out your fertiliser requirement first then work out the water afterwards. I do 10ml of water per gram of iron sulphate in separate applications. If you do the two together then bump up the water amount a bit for some more safety

Thanks Robbie, another great video 👍👍 I've worked out the number and for 100m2 lawn I get 4.5 litres of water, 130ml of seaweed concentrate, 300 grams of Ammonia and 200 grams of Iron. Does that sound about right for a summer mix? Thanks
@Premier_lawns_official
Ай бұрын
300 grams of Ammonia on 100m2 is 3 grams per square meter, which is a little high. The rate is 2.5 grams per m2, try that first and then work up to the 3gs per m if you aren't happy with the colour, on your next spray. Don't double dose if your not happy, wait for it to go away and then your next mix increase it a little, the water and iron rate looks good

Hello, Please could you advise on my request. I have a lawn of 200sq mtrs and I want to apply a mix of sulphate of ammonia and Iron sulphate. I have a 16ltr knapsack sprayer. But not sure of the ratio mix of each for a 16 ltr fill. my initial calculations are as follows: Sulphate of Ammonia = 480gms. Iron Sulphate = 320gms Please could you check and advise accordingly. Also would 16ltr be the correct water amount to cover the 200 sq mtrs Many Thanks Alan. P.S I would also add the liquid seaweed, but not sure on the amount.

Rob, maths was never my strong point! I have 500m of lawn in need of help and a 15 litre backpack sprayer. How many full backpacks would you use and how much product in each backpack??
@Premier_lawns_official
Ай бұрын
Mark, you are asking someone who is dyslexic with numbers (Dyscalculia) a maths question, but here goes. Let's say 2 grams per m2 of iron x 500 (Your lawn) =1kg 2.5g of N x 500 = 1250g Plus, whatever rate your seaweed is. You might get that broken down and into 1 backpack, then run out before you finish... It would be better (plus less chance of blocked nozzles) to do 2 mixes with your full 15L (half those amounts each time) and do 250m at a time. That way, you will get a nice, even spread. The next time you do it, play around with your mix and use a bit less water. Do this each time, and it won't be long until you find your sweet spot.
@markbradshaw4989
Ай бұрын
You're a gent. Makes perfect sense now. In effect, it's the required amount of product for the area. The water is just the medium to hold the product - but that can be much more concentrated so you can use less water to apply a greater concentration. As a pure novice, the concentration was something I was very wary of, and maybe do more harm than good. Thanks again. 👍👍
