Tancrède Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Sulphate of iron, an ounce to two gallons of water, put on with a watering can.Oh, and I meant to say : put it on during the growing season.And it's as cheap as chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 OK, thanks, cheap as chips sounds as good as it gets.However, now please assure me that it doesn't stain everything irridescent blue or fluorescent orange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a pale green crystal (or powder) and when diluted is virtually colourless. It does give a slight smell of old anchors for a day or two - but living far inland I find that quite evocative.You will rapidly see if it is working because the moss will turn black within hours.

mint Posted February 18, 2013 Author Share Posted February 18, 2013 Thank you. I'll ask a French friend who works at one of these places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
