My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

blending slow release fertilizer

14 years ago

Hello, I have a question about fertilizer blending. These are hypothetical numbers to confirm my thoughts about blending.

Pretending I have three 50 pound bags of granular fertilizer that are �

0-0-6

0-6-0
6-0-0

Each has an application rate of one pound per 1000SQF.

If I were to blend these three together I would end up with a 2-2-2?

If I were to increase the dosage to 1 pound per 1000SQF I would have a 6-6-6?

Feedback is appreciated
