When it comes to drenching I often see people say they mix X amount of nutrient per gallon but no mention of how many gallons they actually used.

Say you are going to do a soil drench for example with fish or seaweed at the rate of 1 oz. per gallon. Assuming your plant is 500sqft. how many gallons would be appropriate to drench the soil with? 5 gallons? 50 Gallons?
How many gallons do you use?

Rhode Island

once the plants are full ( 700-800 sq ft ) we use 90 gallons of drench, per plant, once a week.(adjust accordingly per plant size )
we have three 275 gallon tanks for this purpose.tanks are filled one day prior to use to enable water temp to warm.
ammendments are added per instructions on labels.
