Ok this is a math question of ratios in pounds. The exact prescription is .8-2-1.5. Problem is you are not going to find that exact ratio like 4-10-7.5 or 8-20-15 as they just are not formulated.

However that does not matter because first you completely ignore the Nitrogen recommendation a sit will always be low. Now you are left with X -2-1.5 ratio. In this case you can buy the really cheap stuff carried at any place that sell fertilizer, especially farm stores 10-20-10. Apply at a rate of 10 pounds per 1000/ft2. Wait one month then apply 10-0-10 at the same rate and you are done with P&K for the year.

If you can find it 10-20-15 would be perfect at the 10 pound rate. It exist but hard to find. This would give you 1 pound of Nitrogen, 2 pounds of Phosphurous, and 1.5 pounds Pot Ash

Basically that is what I wanted to know I don't understand why they are trying to sell me a balanced fert. At Ace Hardware I vaguely remember seeing something 0-0-18 or something like that. I believe it was organic can I add that and something to make up the K in the 14-14-14 to get what I need? Or in other words is it OK to mix this stuff.

Well what your soil test reports is a balanced fertlizer. All balanced means is it has some ratio of all three NPK. 14-14-14, 10-20-10 10-20-15 are all balanced by using marketing terms.

If you want you can buy 46-0-0, 0-30-0, and 0-0-18 and mix it up yourself. If you can find 10-20-15, that is exactly what you need applied at 10 pounds per 1000/ft2
