i'd start off at about 1/4th strenth recomended dose an since the recomended dose is 1/4th teaspoon then that means one drop per gallon so what u should do is put the one drop in a gallon plus what ever nut mix your using to give introduce it to the hormones then once that gallen runs out up the dosage if u dont see any nut burn trust anyoen who knows anything superthrive is the boss hog!
