# How can I use this in a watering can. I read the whole package and it…

_Posted by Gabe on 2025-07-09_

How can I use this in a watering can. I read the whole package and it doesn’t say it just says to buy an attachment that will dilute for you but that is for hose watering only so I’m lost any help would be immensely appreciated.

You need a hose sprayer.

Something like this

I don’t have a hose though

#### Gabe replied on 2025-07-09

Is there any measurement alike ounces per gallon or some like that as I have a watering can but no hose or place for a hose so I’m kinda at a loss.

Why not return it for a liquid fertilizer that doesn’t require a hose? Amazon and other plant websites have really great liquid fertilizers that are affordable.

I tried to return it they won’t take it and I want to use this stuff

The Miracle Gro site says 1.5 teaspoons/gallon.
