To effectively use Vigoro liquid weed and feed, you should follow a few simple steps. Firstly, it’s important to apply the product during the growing season when weeds are actively developing. This ensures that the weed control ingredients in the product can effectively target and eliminate the weeds in your lawn.
Before applying Vigoro liquid weed and feed, it is recommended to water your lawn one or two days before treating. This helps to ensure that the soil is moist and the weeds are actively growing, making them more susceptible to the weed control ingredients in the product.
Next, you’ll want to prepare the product for application. Vigoro liquid weed and feed comes conveniently ready to spray, so there is no need for manual mixing. Simply connect a garden hose to the hose-end sprayer that is included with the product.
Once you have connected the sprayer to the hose, you can begin applying Vigoro liquid weed and feed to your lawn. It is important to evenly cover the entire lawn area, ensuring that the product reaches all areas where weeds may be present. Be sure to follow the instructions on the product label regarding the recommended application rate and coverage area.
As you spray the product, you may notice that it has a blue color. This is simply a visual indicator to help you see where you have sprayed and ensure even coverage. It will not stain your lawn or cause any harm to your plants.
One bottle of Vigoro liquid weed and feed is designed to cover up to 7,500 square feet, so be mindful of the size of your lawn and adjust your application accordingly. If you have a smaller lawn, you may not need to use the entire bottle.
After applying Vigoro liquid weed and feed, it is recommended to avoid watering your lawn for at least 24 hours. This allows the product to properly adhere to the weeds and begin working to control them. It is also best to avoid mowing your lawn for a few days after application to allow the product to fully penetrate the weeds and provide optimal results.
Over the next few weeks, you should start to see the effects of Vigoro liquid weed and feed as it targets and eliminates the weeds in your lawn. It is normal to see some browning or wilting of the weeds as they are being controlled. However, it is important to note that this product is not selective and may also affect desirable plants, so be cautious when applying near flower beds or other sensitive areas.
Using Vigoro liquid weed and feed is a simple and convenient way to control weeds in your lawn. By following the recommended steps and applying the product during the appropriate season, you can effectively target and eliminate weeds, helping to create a healthier and more vibrant lawn.
