    Q
    Is Ferti-Lome Chelated Liquid Iron and Other Micro Nutrients safe to use on dymondia?
    Trying to get rid of oxalis in my dymondia. I've real the chelated iron is supposed to kill the oxalis but I don't want to kill the dymondia too.
    A

    There is actually not a way to remove the oxalis from your Dymondia without either harming both, or killing neither. The only way to control the oxalis is to either hand pick it out or spot spray with a round up type product like GlyPhoSel Pro and then replant more Dymondia in these spots to try and smother out the oxalis from being able to come back. We apologize that we couldn't provide you with a better solution. Please feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.

    Q
    What is the difference in Ferti-Lome Chelated Liquid Iron vs Fertilome Chelated Iron EDDHA 6% Water Soluble?

    Ferti-Lome Chelated Liquid Iron and Other Micro Nutrients utilizes EDTA chelation and intended for treating acidic to slightly acidic soils (pH below 6.0) and is easily absorbed through the foliage where the 
    Fertilome Chelated Iron EDDHA  6% Water Soluble is designed for treating alkaline soils (pH above 7.0). The iron chelate keeps iron available to plants even in higher pH environments.
