The 4-in-1 MiracleGro is Amazon’s number one best seller and has shoppers raving about how quickly it improved the look of their lawn and got rid of moss and weeds
Keeping your garden looking its best can feel like an uphill battle sometimes, especially when your carefully curated lawn ends up looking patchy or when weeds start sprouting up. Although a typical weed killer can help banish pesky moss and weeds from your grass, some types can also end up damaging the grass around it, leaving it looking worse for wear.
That’s why shoppers have bought so much of the Miracle-Gro EverGreen Complete 4-in-1 Spreader that it’s become Amazon’s number one best seller in the lawn fertiliser section. The £14.50 lawn treatment not only gets rid of the weeds, but helps nourish and fertilise your lawn, with some saying they’d seen results in as quickly as a few days.

The Miracle-Gro Complete 4-in-1 Spreader has a blend of nutrients and minerals that kill off unwanted weeds and moss whilst nourishing your grass at the same time. Its WaterSmart formula helps build strong roots in your lawn which makes it easier for it to withstand things like heat and droughts, avoiding those dreaded yellow and brown patches during the summer.
That means that whilst the moss and weeds are dying off, your lawn is also getting some extra TLC to keep it growing stronger and healthier throughout the year. It’s best used between the months of April and September when weeds are actively growing, and instructions say to apply it when the weather is fair, the soils moist and the grass itself is dry and frost free.
To get the best results, you need to apply a maximum or 35g of the Miracle-Gro Complete 4-in-1 Spreader per square metre of lawn and make sure it’s evenly applied. After one week your grass should look greener, after two weeks moss will start to blacken and need raking out, and between three and five weeks later you should have full control over weeds.
It’s important to note that it’ll only be safe for children and pets to use the lawn once the granules have been thoroughly watered in and the area has fully dried. If you want something that’s completely safe for both pets and children, the Westland Safe Lawn Box for 80m2 is £10 at Sainsbury’s , or you can buy a larger 14kg box for £24.95 (down from £29.99) at Amazon.
The Westland Safe Lawn treatment prevents weeds and moss naturally, and encourages grass to grow stronger and outcompete them, whilst using friendly bacteria to transform dead moss into nutrients for your lawn. It’s also made with natural ingredients and is immediately safe for pets and children to access the lawn.
The Miracle-Gro Complete 4-in-1 Spreader however has more than 1300 five star reviews on Amazon, with one shopper saying: “Always been a great product. Improves the colour and appearance of your lawn within days.”
Another agreed: “Great product and value for money. Improves colour and appearance of your lawn. Has a big coverage and improves the growth rate. I was really impressed with this.”
Some were less impressed, saying: “Though it appears to be killing the weeds after spreading we found it awful stuff it was getting on our feet and marking the decking and trailing in to the house especially if you have pets, and it you get it on your clothing it leaves a yellow stain.”
Another added: “Killed some of the moss but didn’t touch any of the weeds. made the grass grow faster.”
Others loved its results though, writing: “Use this regularly throughout the year. I get a lot of moss during winter so this kills the moss and weeds and helps grass to grow. Easy to sprinkle with the built in spout. Works well. Worth the money.”
