How to Use

1 handful of Growmore is about 35g (just over 1 ounce).

You can apply every 4-6 weeks to maintain the best plant quality and soil fertility.

Vegetables – Before planting

Apply 135g/sq.m as a base dressing to the soil and work in well.

Vegetables – Established plants

Apply 70g/sq.m as a top dressing and work in well.

Potatoes

Apply 210g/sq.m as a base dressing before planting.

Fruit, trees, shrubs & borders

Apply 135g/sq.m around the base of established plants. Gently fork into the soil surface without disturbing the roots. Alternatively sprinkle over the soil surface around the stem of the plant and water in well. When planting out, scatter 135g/sq.m into the bottom of a planting hole and mix well with soil and compost when refilling the hole.

Flowers

Apply 70g/sq.m to the soil surface and lightly fork in. Take care the granules do not touch the plant leaves or stem. Water in well after application.
