Hi All,
I recently started using a Hozon fertilizer injection system and am trying to figure out the appropriate dosing. My goal is to use it for every watering so that my trees are always getting a constant low level of fertilizer. For those of you with a similar setup, what dosing ratio do you shoot for? For example, if you normally give a dose of full strength once a week do you instead shoot for a 1/7th dose since you are giving it every day? More? Less?
I'm looking for a horticultural answer rather than a give XX dose answer. I can see arguments in favor of higher or lower dosing. For example, when I use regular liquid fertilizer, I prewater and then give fertilizer, but this does not apply to an injection system since all the water has dilute fertilizer in it.
Thanks,
Lars
