Killed the moss on my grass

The fertiliser/greener is excellent. Much the same as a powerful hit of 'aftercut' but you only need to use this every few weeks. However ** warning** the moss and weed killer acts by killing whatever it lies on i.e. it uses a 'mechanical effect'. The leaves of weeds face upwards and so the sand and weedkiller will rest on those leaves and be absorbed down to the root eventually. The issue is that the leaves (and even the blades!) of anything facing upward where the sand can rest will be killed by this product. It's therefor just a "blade/leaf contact-herbicide". It doesn't kill the grass because it's meant to slide down it onto the soil.So the best way I've found to use this is to prevent it from resting on the grass blades by lightly dusting the lawn with it and then to lightly water it in - followed by going around and leaving a pinch of the stuff on the moss leaves of any weeds you want to kill outright. After a week rake the dead, blackened weed out and seed it if required. Moss will go black pretty quickly too and the grass should poke through after a couple of weeks. Be careful if your lawn is heavily moss or weed populated as it'll go mostly black and look terrible until the grass re-establishes itself.

Kills the moss and gets the grass really green again.

Lawn dressing

Good old style gardening. V.happy with results. The only negative is if the sand were dry it would be easier to spread

Satisfactory product - does what it's expected to do.

Grass greened and grew.What else to say.Just make sure that itswell watered in.
