Weed N Feed 2 Litre Yates
Walking barefoot through fresh green grass is one of life’s great pleasures. But when the soft spring of fresh lawn gets replaced with scratchy, rough weeds, it’s time to sort it out!
Yates Weed ‘n’ Feed Hose-On contains fast-acting plant hormones, which are absorbed by the weeds and transferred to their roots. This causes them to curl and yellow, before being eradicated within four weeks. It’s safe to use on several varieties of grass and turf (except non-grass lawns and Buffalo) leaving grass green and upright
As well as effectively eradicating weeds, it also contains a fertiliser that contains nitrogen to encourage lush green leaves and a stronger lawn, and iron to promote a rich green colour through your lawn
The hose-on formula couldn’t be easier to use. The on/off switch means you can attach it straight to your garden hose and spray your lawn directly. The wetting agent gives improved spray coverage and leaf penetration, making it work quickly and effectively. Once the spray has dried, grass is safe for pets and children
Fewer weeds, greener grass, minimal effort!

INGREDIENTS
2L (Treats 130m2)
Active Constituents:
15g/L MCPA as the Dimethylamine Salt, 2.3g/L Dicamba present as the Dimethylamine Salt
Guaranteed Analysis:
Total Nitrogen (N) as Urea 115g/L 11.5%w/vIron (Fe) as chelated Iron 1.25g/L 0.13%w/v
HOW IT WORKS
MCPA and Dicamba are plant hormones which are absorbed by foliage and translocated to roots. The weed is forced into excessive disordered growth which leads to gradual curling and yellowing and then death of the weed within 4 weeks
Plant/situation;
Lawns and turf (Except BUFFALO GRASS)
Weeds controlled;
Most broadleaf weeds: including Onehunga (prickle) weed, capeweed, clovers, cudweed, dandelion, dock, lambs tongue (plantain), thistles and wireweed
