This product is pointless with any non organic fertilizer! The main purpose of Rock Dust" is for a place microbes to attach, to help break down the soil and give plants more nutrients or specific things. If you are growing with non organic fertilizers this really is a waste of your money do to the fact that they kill most if not all of your microbes..

I don't think it will help much. I mix it in a used water bottle and poured over my roses thinking it would clog sprayer nozzle. Leaves looked dusty after it dried. Didn't seem to help much as mixing it directly into the root zone. Beginning to notice that it is a great root stimulator but still need fertilizer or compost to make plants green

You can. Fill the hose end sprayer half full. The trouble is this: Your hose end sprayer should thereafter only be used for insecticides.

I never premix any fertilizer.... I mix what I need and use. Hope that helps you.

It needs to be mixed with it. Along with Epsom salts. Look up MHP gardener on YouTube. He gave me a lot of info on it. He has a video where he discusses the fertilizer in detail. Hope this helps.

You can - at least you could when I did it. I checked the concentrations on the labels and they were the same, so I poured the concentrate into the hose sprayer and sprayed. To verity - you can go to the Bayer website and find the products labels. Make sure the concentration of the ingredients is the same in both products. If the 704140 is the same, you can do it. If the 704140 is stronger, you can dilute with water and then use it. If it's weaker, you still can use it but might get poor results.

Yes it is very soluble. it could be used for hydroponics but not the best. Jacks 16-4-17 or its new name Oasis Hydroponic Fertilizer 16-4-17

For a number of years I have mixed mine in an "old fashioned" garden watering can, poured it on, and it has worked very well. Not sure if a sprayer would put down enough of the Roundup or not.

No absolutely not. The instruction specifically say not to add water soluble fertilizer. The reason why is simple, if WS fertilizer is added to the water when the system is taken out of use there will be a small amount of residual water left in the tubing and in the reservoir itself. When this residual water evaporates it will leave tiny microscopic crystals of the fertilizer in both. As times goes by and this process is repeated the build up will slowly get worse eventually clogging the system. Also, any if there are any metallic part that come in contact with the WS fertilizer there is a potential for corrosion as fertilizer chemicals can be very corrosive to some metals.

Mix according to the directions on the bottle and put it in your pump sprayer. You must also purchase and use some surfactant, otherwise itvwill bead off the grass. Spray away!

It is concentrated, so I would mix with water according to label instructions and pour that into the sprayer and have at it. Thoroughly clean the sprayer after use even if you are going to use it only with this product.

it doesn't contaminate the soil, only kills what is sprayed on, (unless you saturated the ground). I would wait at least a month, then a good tilling with some good quality fertilizer you should be ok.

Mr. Harry:I had to do some math to figure out that also. I see I wrote down 1/3 oz. for my 2 gal tank sprayer. Six teaspoons make an ounce, so I use 2 teaspoons for my 2 gallons. Therefore you only need 1 teaspoon for 1 gallon. So far I only used the product for one application because fall came and grass was going dormant. I did after several weeks start to get that frost look, but what I read is that it really needs 2-3 applications. Another trick I use is to add some Bonide Spreader Sticker to the mix. It provides adhesion of the tenacity so it sticks better to the vegetation and lets it perform better. I bought that on Amazon also.

I also agree that it is a time release fertilizer which should not be dissolved before applying

Indont see why not. I have a larger area to spray so mix up a gallon at a time, but a smaller batch would be no problem. The stuff works great,too.

Sure a reg spray bottle will work for a time . It may eventually gum up or the Citrus will effect some of the parts in the sprayer

One Tablespoon of Bonide to One gallon of prepared spray solution, not only for weed killer. This is the company's recommendation so go with it.

Buy the concentrate and use as much as you need, then rinse out your sprayer, don't keep mixed product. We have saved the concentrate and used that year to year with no problem. Just keep it where it won't freeze and thaw. Last year was terrible for hydrangeas and even wilt pruf didn't save the buds when we had prolonged very cold weather early spring. Let's hope for a better year. Christine and Richard
