Product Information

Full details

This Jarder Iron Sulphate is designed for lawn owners seeking to enhance grass color, strength, and health. Its key benefit is transforming dull turf into vibrant, revitalized green while offering protection against lawn diseases. A significant caveat is its danger to aquatic life and the potential for staining on hard surfaces, restricting its use solely to grass areas. This nutrient-rich formula revitalizes tired lawns and promotes healthy turf growth.

FAQs

How often should I apply Jarder Iron Sulphate?

Application frequency depends on lawn needs and conditions, but generally, it can be applied every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Always refer to the product label for specific recommendations.

Can I use this product on artificial grass?

No, Jarder Iron Sulphate is formulated for natural grass lawns and is not intended for use on artificial turf.

Is it safe to use around pets and children?

While the product is applied to the lawn, it is recommended to keep pets and children off the treated area until it has been watered in and dried to prevent accidental ingestion or contact.

What is the best time of year to apply this product?

The best time to apply is during the active growing season, typically spring through early autumn, when grass can readily absorb the nutrients. Avoid application in extreme heat, drought, or when frost is imminent.

How much area does one 2.5kg bucket cover?

One 2.5kg bucket of Jarder Iron Sulphate can cover up to 2500 square meters.

What does the 'X 4' mean in the product title?

The 'X 4' indicates that the product comes as a pack of four 2.5kg buckets, totaling 10kg.

Why is it dangerous to aquatics?

Iron Sulphate can significantly alter water chemistry, leading to harm or death of fish and other aquatic organisms. It must not be allowed to enter drains, sewers, or waterways.

Troubleshooting

Lawn not showing improved color after application

Ensure the correct dilution rate was used and the product was applied evenly. Check if weather conditions (e.g., drought, extreme cold) are hindering nutrient uptake. Reapplication may be necessary after 10-14 days if results are not apparent, following recommended guidelines.

Staining on paths or patios

Immediately sweep or rinse any product that has fallen on hard surfaces before it dries. If staining has occurred, it may be permanent. Always use a shield or apply carefully to avoid contact with non-grass areas.

Product does not dissolve properly

Ensure you are using the correct amount of water for mixing and stirring vigorously. Allow some time for the powder to fully hydrate and dissolve. If issues persist, try mixing in smaller batches.

Signs of plant stress after application

This could indicate over-application or application during unfavorable conditions. Ensure you have followed the dilution and application rate instructions precisely. Water the lawn thoroughly to dilute any excess product in the soil.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To prepare the solution, consult the dilution rates specified on the rear of the 2.5kg bucket. Typically, a recommended amount of powder is mixed thoroughly with a specific volume of water. Ensure the powder is fully dissolved before application.

Compatibility: This product is specifically designed for use on grass lawns. It is not suitable for use on hard surfaces such as patios, driveways, or decking, as it can cause permanent staining. Exercise extreme caution when using near ponds, streams, or other water bodies due to its toxicity to aquatic life.
