Miracle-Gro Feeder Unit filled with All Purpose Soluble Plant Food, Connects Straight to a Garden Hose

Product Information

I've got a Miracle Gro hose end feeder and it works okay. You just need to ensure you hold it level otherwise it squirts everywhere. It can be used on a multi 2 / 3 way tap connector, to give you access to the tap for washing the car/ filling watering cans, or it can be fitted straight to the tap and doesn’t need a tap adaptor to fit. It comes with the same adaptors as the Metal Threaded Connector above.

When used with Miracle-Gro® EverGreen® Water Soluble Lawn Food it makes light work of feeding your lawn ensuring its richer and greener throughout the season.Hose-end sprayers are similar in function to many hose nozzles, allowing you to adjust the flow pattern of the water by twisting a knob or a nozzle tip. Typically, they’ll have up to four spray patterns ranging from a light mist to a narrow, high-pressure stream. These adjustments control the amount of fertilizer, herbicide, or inoculants the sprayer distributes in the yard, on trees, or onto flower beds. But after seeing the images of how much easier it makes things, you find yourself thinking ‘ahh, no more kinks or damaging the hose or corner of my wall.’ While the Chapin G390 performed well in our testing, it has a couple of minor downsides worth mentioning. The sprayer features a thumb lever on top, which feels less ergonomic than a traditional trigger design. We prefer a trigger-type sprayer for convenience. Plus, it offers only one spray pattern, limiting the versatility of application options. It’s best suited to lawns and low-growing flowers and shrubs due to the downward angle of the spray.

One of the standout features of this sprayer is the clear reservoir, which makes it easy to monitor the soap level. We could tweak the desired water-to-soap ratio by attaching the nozzle to the hose and adjusting the dial on the top. The inclusion of eight spray patterns enhances its versatility. There are two ways to apply liquid fertilizer: Either add the liquid fertilizer to the sprayer’s reservoir or, if compatible, attach the bottle of liquid fertilizer directly to the hose-end sprayer’s nozzle by removing the reservoir and attaching the bottle. Q. How do I clean a hose-end sprayer? This hose carries water from your tap to the universal drippers that you position around your garden in a way that suits your layout. Nematode application methods– Nematodes are supplied as a powder, which is mixed with water and applied directly to the soil with :- How long will it last? If I don't use all the tank is it going to denature if left standing for a week?Considering its budget-friendly price point, the Chapin G390 hose-end sprayer is a reliable choice for those seeking a durable and practical sprayer for their yard. While it may have some minor ergonomic considerations and limited spray-pattern options, it delivers satisfactory performance in terms of spraying capability and ease of use. If you’re using a spray gun as opposed the the standard hose nozzle, you have to detach it the gun before feeding it through. Hose-end sprayers may feature dials that allow the user to adjust the ratio of water to chemicals. These dials are usually set by ounces of chemicals per gallon of water. Many adjustable flow sprayers allow you to set the mix ratio from 1 ounce of chemicals per gallon of water up to 14 ounces per gallon of water. Most fertilizers, pesticides, and weed killers have instructions detailing the correct ratio for the product. I agree with Kristen and use slow release feed in March every year. I do feed my plants with a very dilute feed a few times during summer as well, but that's more to give them a different feed such as seaweed and is probably superfluous but I enjoy doing it. I do feed the flowering plants such as Fuchsias and Roses with tomato feed in between as well. No dilution adjustment—dilution is controlled by measuring the product before adding it to the tank
