    Hello,
    Got bashed ears for staining the patio blue with liquid Miracle Grow. Anyone know of a brand that doesn't stain? Not keen on using pellets because it takes so long to remove the pebbles from all the container tops.

    I will trade a non stain lawn fert pellet brand that I use.

    Ta x

    Phostrogen

    It's been around a lot longer than Miracle grow.
    It has more micronutrients and other goodies that MG does not have. So it's a better product.

    It was the most popular fert for many years until heavy marketing for MGrow usurped it.
    But despite not being advertised it's still very popular.

        Thank you Pete8. Defo getting some.

        My non-stain lawn fert is from Lawnsmith and called Spring & Summer 'Natur' Fertiliser. That is my one and only secret. Not an employee.

          P.S. Would that be the powder Phostrogen or liquid version? Or both maybe?

          I use the powder type - it works out much cheaper.
