Hahaha- so true, same here lol 😂 I did not realize that there is plastic cover and I sprayed ambitiously so much water- finally understood that after a while that there’s plastic cover 🤣😆😁to remove on the top .
@@diyourhouse2 Probably because it cost a bit more to make it with its aluminum extension. I used to have one decades ago, but got out of gardening for a season, and when I got back into it, I couldn’t find one. I’ve looked all over the internet. Even EBay doesn’t have a used one.
Thank you for the excellent demonstration. My blue color pulses - comes out clear, then spurts blue, the n clear , then blue. I find this is not as comfortable as the liquid feeder but that has gotten cost prohibitive.
Great video! Is there a risk that it will dispense too much of the plant food and burn my plants? The device seems so simple, I don't understand how it mixes the proper ratio of plant food to water.
I thought you had to put water with the miracle gro and then attach the hose. Or you just put the fertilizer by itself and let the water fro the hose mix it?
Well, the sprayer must have a "water limited" feature on it so the user spends twice as much time watering the garden and/or yard. Also, it needs to come with a "quick-disconnect" feature so screwing off and on on a regular basis isn't spent on doing so constantly. And, lastly, dude. Fix the aluminum shed door! ...
Have to turn mine upside down before it dispenses BLUE for my garden plants. ❤
Yes. That is not necessary but I can see how that could help speed it up.
Is it ok to leave the hose lying over the grass like in the video will it not stop the grass underneath it from being fed?
I’m a big dummy. First time using it today and I did not realize that there was a plastic cover on it.😅😅😅. Sad thing is I’m a lawn guy!
LMAO!!!!!
😂 hey, I been using it for year's and still forget
Wondering if it's REALLY effective on lawn. Hedges? Do need to spray the leaves or ground underneath
ZI 😅mom

They used to make a feeder with an extended nozzle that was about 2 feet long. It made fertilizing a garden much easier than the current feeder.
Interesting. I wonder why its not sold anymore.

@@bigrich6750 If I find one I'll let you know

It sounds like it is having problems mixing. Maybe that batch is too old. Try a new batch, or try shaking the feeder.

Thank you!!

Not that I know of

The water will automatically mix with the fertilizer once you start spraying the hose.
Make sure hose connection is tightly screwed in to the unit.
And make sure there's a rubber gasket in the hose.
Plastic got me too
Common problem.
Mine never sprays blue unless I shake it and then returned to water.
It has a deeper shake of blue when you shake it.
I don’t know if I like this thing
How often can I fertilize my yard ? 4:56
You can fertilize it every two weeks.
Mine leaks. Any suggestions
Sorry. Maybe the gasket is broken.
Mine leaks also between the sprayer and the nozzle. Changed the washer to no avail.
@@jerrymontalbano3222 It could be a flawed sprayer.
I have same problem,
I followed all the directions n only get clear water...no blue!!😢
It's only a light shade of blue. It could be that the batch you're using is old.
My flowers garden are not 500 sq ft. Do i need to use it in one go?
Pretty much. Once it gets wet then it will harden when dried.
Just estimate how big the area is and prefill the container accordingly. Mine has graduation marks for 200, 300 sq f...
If you can use MG plant food on lawns why is there a MG lawn food also?
Check with your garden center which is best for your lawn.

The sprayer doesn't have any limits on it. Re: the shed door, we'll be removing it and putting a firepit in that spot.
@@diyourhouse2 ...gotta love it! 8-)
