  • Chilli feeding?

    On the back of my tomato food bottle it says to use 1/2 cap full per 4.5l of water. I do not want to make up 4.5l, only enough for a few plants... how much do I use?

    Mix a cap with 10 caps of water in another bottle, Then use 1/2 a cap of the mix per 450ml of water to make up the ready to use fertiliser

      So once I make up 1/2 cap full with 10 cap full of water and put in to a bottle, I then take half a cap full of THAT mix per 450ml of water.

      Do I just spray or water as normal?

        yes, Once you have the mix made up in a bottle, mix half a cap of the mix to add to 450ml of water to water the plants

            By my calculation that would actually give you a half strength mix, because you've done the 1/2 cap twice.

            Instructions say 1/2 cap per 4.5ltr (= 4500ml), using formula above it works out to 1/4 cap per 4500ml.

              A capful per watering can is what I use.
