Is the ratio of ferts for flowering more important than the amount. Like if you used a 15-30-30 NPK at 1/2 strength would it work just as good as full strength?

Hello,
Lets pretend that one ounce of your 15-30-30 NPK, added to one gallon of water, breaks down like this. 50ppm N - 100ppm P - 100ppm K...
...Now if you were to only give half of the amount (.5 ounces) then you would end up with a concentration of 25ppm N - 50ppm P - 50ppm K...
...So no, Adding at 1/2 strength will not work just as well as a full strength feeding.
I hope this helps
Peace

Hello,
No problem.
Here is to knowing your nutrient amounts, so that you may grow herb ounce by ounce.
Take care.

My uncle suprised me yesterday with this.
I've added a dosage to one plant, there were no bad effects so i'm happy with that.
You should start at a low strength and work your way up, to give your plants time to adjust.Quote:
