    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.

  • 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.
