I’m just wondering if it’s possible to make a solution and apply Sulphate of Iron as a moss control to a lawn with a knapsack sprayer? i.e. Will it work the same as applying the dry granuals?The directions say to apply with a spreader at a 30g/Sq metre ratio so just wondering if i can dilute with water instead.

Sulphate of iron can be applied in dilute form. But only the pure form of sulphate of iron. Often it is mixed with sand for distribution.
30 g per square metre is a high rate and as little as one-third or even one-quarter of this is the normal rate. On the other hand, this might be already mixed with a carrier. The pure salt is pale green.
