Growing hot peppers with Masterblend fertilizer, Calcium Nitrate and Epson salt

Описание: Just answering some questions on which fertilizer I use for peppers and how I mix it.

1) Link to buy supplies.

2) Mix: 15 grams of MB and Ca(NO3)2 and 10 grams of Epson salt per 5 gallons of cool, crisp, spring water or whatever water you have.

3) What is the NPK of this mix...assuming you trust my fuzzy "math".
So based on the instructions of 1 ounce per 3 gallons....
-MB per ounce mixed in 3 gallons: NPK= 4%-18%-38%
-Ca(NO3)2 per ounce mixed in 3 gallons: NPK=15.5%-0%-0%
NPK for both combined in 3 gallons at a 1:1 ratio is 19.5%-18%-38%

I'm NOT an expert on this, but the way I figure is that for 15 grams of MB and 15 grams of calcium nitrate the percentage work out as follows:
For each 0.5 ounce (i.e. 15 grams) mixed in 3 gallons of water we get:
-MB would be NPK = 2-9-19
-Ca(NO3)2 would be NPK: 7.75-0-0
NPK for both combined in 3 gallons at a 1:1 ratio is 9.75-9-19 for the 15-15-10 gram mixture specified. I added 2 additional gallons of water for 5 gallons total to bring these figures down to 5.85-5.4-11.4 to allow more frequent watering.

So for a 3:3 ratio (assuming the gram ratios specified and assuming 3 gallons still) it would be 29.25-27-57, which WILL burn your plants. If you add 2 additional gallons of water for 5 gallons total it would bring these figures down. Using the formula below you can adjust how much water you add to get closer to the ratios you want. In this case I think it roughly comes down to an overall NPK 17.55%-16.2%-34.19% in 5 gallons.

If you need to figure out going forward for different dilutions you can use the following formula:
Formula: Concentration(stock) × Volume(stock) = Concentration(dilute) × Volume(dilute)

Using an example for the Nitrogen figures above and adding 2 additional gallons of water where:
-Concentration(stock) = 29.25 %
-Volume(stock) = 3 gallons
-Concentration(dilute) = unknown variable (Var)
-Volume(dilute) = 5 gallons
29.25 * 3 = Var x 5
Var = 17.55% of Nitrogen in 5 gallons
