Application: Growmore is typically applied evenly over the soil surface and then lightly forked or hoed into the top layer. For specific applications:
Compatibility: Growmore is a general-purpose fertilizer and is compatible with most soil types and garden plants when used as directed. It can be used alongside soil conditioners but avoid mixing directly with other concentrated fertilizers without professional advice.
Care: Always wear gloves when handling the fertilizer and wash hands thoroughly after use. Store in a dry place, securely sealed, and out of reach of children and pets. Avoid direct contact with plant leaves and stems to prevent potential burning.
