On the water soluble fert a general amount is one Tablespoon per gallon of water. I have read earlier that more can be used for foliar/drench without burning leaves or the roots.

What has been the maximum ratio that you have used in the past for both foliar and drench and how often? Last year I just followed the directions on the label but instead of once a month I did it once a week.

Will be using 10-52-10, 20-20-20, 15,30,15 as well as fish/seaweed.....Tom

Personally I keep to the label for intial mixing. Out of respect for chlorides primarily. But increase frequency of application as I feel the need.

The line is fine.

I'd like to hear from someone who has produced a whopper.

Over here we have Blaukorn (blue grain, looks like the name suggests) or Nitrophoska with lowered P levels. Label suggestion is ONE time before planting - well, sounds unbelievable to me. 20-20-20 or 20-5-20. It won´t stay forever, so...maybe for strawberries...
