Hello! I have been given a Miracle Grow Liquafeed Gun by a friend. Fantastically easy to use, I fed the hanging baskets, tomatoes, pelargoniums, and the whole garden effortlessly.
However, the bottles are around £5 for two and I was just wondering if anyone had refilled one of these bottles themselves and how they did it in terms of mixing the appropriate strength feed. I have got the miracle grow all purpose soluble plant food which I use anyway and thought if I mixed this to correct strength as is in the bottles I could re-use the bottles. Bit stumped on working out correct dosage for bottles! Or would it work with concentrated seaweed maxicrop type feed or even home made comfrey feed which needs diluting before use.
Feeling extremely frugal today

.......I'd make up a weak soloution but then again if it is too strong I don't think it will do the plants any harm, it will just be wasted. The miracle grow bottle I have has a screw cap that you put the feed in so I thought it was the same kind, I didn't know it was a throw away item.
