    I resently bought one of these new fangled "clip on your hose, soluble food plant feeder thingamy majigs" from Miracle Grow (as seen on tv :dbgrtmb:). Ive just applyed said feed to my beds, which arnt huge but a reasonable size, and still have loads left in the bottle.

    Will this keep for a week or two until I deside to give them another feeding and is there any thing i need to be carfull of when applying?

    Hello Technic
    yes it will keep in the bottle . I use one on my lawn and each 1/2 kg bag does 2 feeds 6 weeks apart. Just be careful when you screw the bottle onto the gun if you screw it on too far it can drop off !

          I have had my miracle grow bottle feeder for years ,not the new type ,its an empty dumpy bottle and you put scoops of miracle grow ,or any other soluble feed,into bottle top it up with water and attach to hose. It gives different spray options and with or without food. :sunny:

          I have noticed though that the recommended amount of scoops seems extraordinarily high, I just put in a couple of heaped scoops for front and add more for back,but my gardens are not huge :heehee:
