  • Liquid iron

    Client of mine is obessed with having his lawn look like a "golf course." Evidently while up at the country club he asked the grounds keeper what he uses to keep everything so green. Ends up walking away with several gallons of liquid iron. He stored this sheot in his garage for a couple years....up until last week when he realized he still has it laying around. He gave it to me to dump on his lawn later this year.

    I gotta figure out how to apply this. I haven't looked into much at all. What should I expect? Disaster? :alien::alien::alien:

    I would tell him that you have never used it and with the age of it you cannot guarentee it would not kill it all. I would not touch that.

        I haven't touched a backpack sprayer this season yet. Plan is to mix it in the skid sprayer.

        How can age effect liquid iron? It mutates? :alien:

          depends on the type of iron if its chelated or has mag and sulfur in it
          green rate is usually 3-5 oz's per thousand sq feet but i use 8 oz's of chealted iron and the 5 ozs per thousand high mag combo chelated iron and sulfur and it allmost turns it blackish green. it sticks out like a sore thumb

            I did get tickled at your post. We have some clients that are also obsessed with the golf course lawn. I had not heard of liquid iron but our client wanted us to use purest colloids silica. But I don't know about iron, sounds a bit risky to me. I know it doesn't work well on roses. But you have the instant out, I wouldn't trust that stuff with a ten foot pole after 2 years in a garage. How hot/cold does the manufacturer suggest? I'd be afraid of that one. Please follow up with a post on what you decided.
