Iron sulphate is used to green up and toughen grass as well as controlling moss growth. You are able to use this high quality iron formulation all year round, however it is particularly beneficial during colder spells of weather, as it will also help to strengthen the plant against frost and disease. Iron is absorbed by the leaf, which then gives rapid results. It has also been known to blacken moss within hours of application. However Due to recent changes in the law, products which contain ferrous sulphate can no longer be claimed to have control against moss. This is because any product which ‘controls’ moss is now classed as a herbicide, and this requires the product to have an expensive and complex approval. Due to this, we are unable to claim that this product will control moss; In spite of the fact that the product formulation has not changed since when it was used to control moss with very good results. Iron sulphate is fully dis-solvable in water although good agitation is strongly recommended so then blocked nozzles are avoided. This product is ideal for treating large areas such as horse paddocks & amenity areas. You are able to use a knapsack or boom sprayer to apply the sulphate of iron, this also ensures there is a good coverage of the grass and moss. Use 500L of water per hectare to help improve the coverage of thicker grass. This product is the best iron/ferrous sulphate on the market! It is widely used by Professionals from Lawn professionals, to groundsman. Iron is important to the plant; it is involved in chlorophyll synthesis, occurring in important proteins and enzymes. Iron is also involved in the photosynthetic process and in nitrogen fixation. The availability of Fe increases with declining pH. Iron deficiency in developing leaves prevents cell division and therefore growth
