Are you joking? Have you read the box?

If it's a regular fertilizer, there will be instructions for making a solution.
If it's an organic like powdered bat shit, there will be instructions for scratching it into the soil or making a tea.

I´ve read the box dude no instructions at all, just the NPK values and how to mix it along with soil, wich i cannot do at the momment cause the plants are already in the pots..so i figured i could mix them with water, but have no idea on the amounts to use......I do not joke about growing....:D :D

If its a powder, just try 2 teaspoons(not tablespoons!)/gallon

Cheers 4x5 i thought on doing that (cause its the general usage), i just dont know if i need to heat the water at any specific temp, or acctually boil the water or just mix it straight at room temp...any ideas on that?

Exactly what is it? Is it an organic supplement? If so, try making a 'tea' out of it.

temps dont matter (unless your stuff is big crystals or something) when mixing, just cap the bottle and shake it up, remember to shake it again every time before using it (sometimes the ferts settle a bit to the bottom)

I WOULD ADD NUTES UNTIL YOUR PPM IS ABOUT 1200. WITH MY POWDER HYDRO-GRO, THATS ABOUT 1-1/4 TEASPOON.

GOOD LUCK
