Safety Information
Ferrous Sulphate Safety Data Sheet
Application
For moss control, aim for 5g iron sulphate/m2 of turf lawn if applied as a solid product (this is equivalent to 50kg iron sulphate/ha).
Alternatively, dissolve at 5g/litre of water and apply to lawns at 1 litre/m2. Allow granular ferrous sulphate a few minutes to dissolve and stir well.
Storage
Bags should be tightly sealed and stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
