Just received my 2 1/2 gallon jug of Nutri-Cal and instructions tell how much to apply per acre. I need to know how to dilute it per gallon and to apply to 2K sq. ft. I seem to be able to cover all of my plants at this time with about 2 gals of whatever mix I am applying. (Fish, Seaweed, Fungicides, Pesticedes, Black Strap, Etc.) The product is 6% Nitrogen and 8% Calcium, (I think???) All help appreciated as (I KNOW NOTHING) Thanks to all...again... Peace Wayne

Wayne. My instructions says to mix it 1 oz/gallon for low volume hand sprayers. 1 gallon per week is what I have been spraying and it's doing 3 plants in 1250 sq ft patch. Everything seems to be doing well. This is the first time I have used the nutri-cal and so far I really like it. Just my 2 cents worth. Mike

Nutrical tank mixes properly with many properly manufactured fertilizers. There are some higher Phosphorus exceptions. A review of the 2 item labels should give you some indication of possible tank-mix problems. Most labels also contain disclaimers since all possible combinations cannot be thought of at the time of labling & new peoducts come about almost daily.
The best practice of all is to do a "JAR TEST" at the approximate (or higher) concentrations desired. Shake the jar & wait.
Bad mixes might seperate as elements of P or K fall out of suspension. Others might turn to Jello.
