    Q
    How much of the Peters Professional 20-20-20- fertilizer would I use each time I fill the a 500 G tank?
    I plan on running a drip system, 75 plants, @ 2.5 gallons of water for each plant, each day. The plants are in a sunny area in central CA. I would like to add the fertilizer once a week (strong dosage). The 500 gallon container will be topped off with water every other day and stirred every hour on the hour. We are a medical farm 420 If you could give me a range to work with and or start with that would be great. What product would I use during flowering
    A

    How much of a fertilizer such as the Peters Professional 20-20-20 General Purpose Fertilizer that you use will depend upon the amount of the nutrients (usually Nitrogen) you want to apply to your target plants.

    Q
    I live in Arizona and I brought 2 lilac bushes from Idaho. What's the best Peter's fertilizer to use?
    They are not healthy and our soil is. (what's the word for it) crappy. lol
    A

    The first step has to be to see what your soil is lacking. You should get a soil test done. You can do this by contacting your local extension office or by purchasing a low-cost kit and sending off the sample. You can see a kit and directions here:

    Can Peters Professional 20-20-20 General Purpose Fertilizer be tank mixed with Tenacity for a weed and feed type of application in early spring (April/May). Treating 45,000 square feet in Western Pennsylvania.
    A

    There should be no issues applying Tenacity around the same time as a feritlizer as long the label on the fertilizer does not state that it cannot be used with herbicides.
