Scotts Lawn Builder With Weed Killer

Australia's most popular lawn fertiliser has an excellent reputation with home gardeners and professional turf managers alike. The 'set and forget' solution to having a great lawn all year round, this product includes selective herbicides that will kill most broadleaf weeds with exceptions.

Benefits:
- Weedkill containsthree selective broadleaf herbicides that will control a broad range of weeds (see technical details below for a list)
- Boosted iron and sulphurcontent promotes deeper green and stronger growth. The thicker the lawn, the less chance weeds have of taking hold - they're smothered before they become obvious and need treatment
- Slow-release of nutrients through controlled feedingeliminates waste through run-off and leaching and prevents burning and surge growth
- Traditional lawn foods release or 'dump' most of their nutrients within a couple of weeks of application, causing a rapid surge in growth that quickly drops off again as the food supply diminishes. Scotts Lawn Builder™ usespatented time-release technologyto ensure nutrients are released slowly and continuously over a three month period
- Weedkill has a low 1% phosphorus, which means it can besafely used anywhere in Australiawithout posing any risk to ground or surface water
- The recommended low application rate is just 16 grams per m2, not the kilograms often associated with regular lawn foods!

HOW IT WORKS
Weedkill is a slow-release fertiliser that provides continuous nutrition over a three month period while eradicating selected broadleaf weeds
Every granule of Weedkill contains Scotts patented time-release nitrogen
Nutrients are released at about the same rate that grass roots can take up the fertiliser so there is no wastage, run-off to waterways or damaging surge growth

HOW TO USE
Weedkill has a recommended application rate of 16g/m2
To work out how much you will need to fertilise your lawn:
Calculate the area of the lawn in square metres (multiply the length by the width)
The area multiplied by the application rate will give the exact amount of Scotts Lawn Builder™ you need
Use a set of scales to weigh it out and then add it to the spreader ready to apply - do not be tempted to add a 'bit extra for luck' because over-application may result in nitrogen burning

How do I apply it?
For best results ALWAYS use a Scotts spreader
Check your model and make sure to set it correctly before you start (settings are also on the back label of the product)
If you don't have a spreader, make sure you distribute the fertiliser evenly over the lawn - uneven applications may result in 'hot spot' burning where too much has landed in one spot
Don't attempt to cover the area in one pass - you may under or over apply. Even coverage may be better obtained by passing over the entire area at least three times, moving at a different angle and applying about one third of the total amount in each pass
Apply to moist foliage. If the lawn is not moist from dew or recent rain, wet the area to be treated
Allow the product to remain undisturbed on the lawn for 24 hours before watering in thoroughly
Rain, watering or heavy foot traffic within 24 hours can knock granules off weeds and may reduce the effectiveness of the weedicides
Do not mow within 48 hours of applying this product
