    Q
    should i use Garden Feeder when the soil is dry or can i apply after a rain?
    A
    We would recommend applying Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder when no rain is in the forecast for at least 24 hours for best results. If it has rained before the application, we would suggest waiting 24 hours after the rain has stopped to apply. Please be sure to review the product label for more information and complete application instructions.

    Q
    How can Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder give equal amounts of feed if the reservoir pot is being continuously diluted during use?
    A

    The Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder dispenses a gallon every 15 seconds. The water gets fed into the feeder and then cycled back out through an internal syphon on the inside of the cap which allows for proper feeding.

    The feeder won't shut off the water. It continues to keep running after the trigger is in the off position. I've only used this feeder about 10 times. I even changed the (3) washers. Do you have a solution? I use this product for feeding both flowers & garden.
    A
    This is a product that we do not carry on our website and we are not familiar with the details. We recommend that you contact the manufacturer of the product for troubleshooting questions.

    Q
    Can I use my Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder to spray just water?
    A

    Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder delivers the accurate amount of water and product when applied as directed so there would not be an option to apply just water. If wanting just water, remove feeder to water direct from the hose.

  • Asked by Nicola from Klamath Falls, Oregon
    07/31/2021
    Q
    What is the water pressure required for proper spraying of Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder?
    The water stays blue for far more than 10 to 12 minutes. My hose is 60 feet long so I fear that the length of the hose drops the pressure too much for correct ratio to be put on the plants.
    A

    We apologize but we have never heard of any specific pressure level required when using the Miracle Gro Garden Feeder, and most homes should have enough pressure for the unit to work correctly. Since we have not had this happen before, we would recommend you contact the manufacturer of the item as they may better be able to assist you with that type of information. You can reach Miracle Gro at 866-476-9244.

    Q
    Can Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder be sprayed directly on the tomato plant?
    Can it be directly sprayed on my tomato plants or only on the dirt and how often should I water them with Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder?
    A

    Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder can be applied directly to all outdoor plants including flowers, vegetables, trees, and shrubs. 1lb packet of plant food should make approximately 40 gallons of solution to cover 400 square feet, and it would dispense in 10-12 minutes.

  • Asked by Dorothy from Sacramento Ca
    10/29/2021
    Q
    After following the directions and when I turned the water on, the water ran clear and never turned blue. What could the issue be?
    When I turned on the water, it came out of a little hole in the top of the handle first but all I ever got out of the sprayer was clear water. I used it anyway for about 15 minutes. When I took off the top, the water inside was very blue. I don't think it ever came out.
    A

    We apologize for any issues you may be experiencing with the Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder. The Miracle Gro Water Soluble Lawn Food that is to be used with the Miracle Gro Garden Feeder is a blue crystalline product and when diluted with water it will have a blue tint, fading in intensity as the product is used up.

    If the water is not mixing with the crystalline product properly than we would recommend contacting the retailer where the product was purchased or contact Scotts directly at 888-270-3714 for troubleshooting.
