this is from the Humboldt Wholesale website:
"Here's the trick: Fill a one gallon container (like an old bottled water or cleaned out milk jug) 2/3 full with luke-warm water and add one sachet of Shooting Powder to it. The Shooting Powder will fizz and bubble. Wait for the fizzing to slow, and then top off the water. Put the lid on the container and shake to ensure the Shooting Powder is fully dissolved. This gallon is now an impromptu Shooting Powder concentrate.
Now, you can add 151ml of your new Shooting Powder concentrate per gallon of feed water! It's just that easy."
there ya go
The shooting powder comes in a 65 gr bag and the dosage for the whole bag is 100L or 25metric gals or 26.4 US gals let's just call it a metric gal since L are metric. Since the bag is already dissolved into 1gal of water it's left to be distributed to 24 metric gals. If you dose 151ml per gal of water you're going to have 7.625 gals. What you would want is to split the 1gal into 24 or 25 equal parts (for simplicity) which would be 40ml doses not 151ml doses. If it was the final two weeks it it would be 80ml doses. 40ml doses = 265 ppm increase a 151ml dose is nearly 4 times stronger! That's adding 1000 ppms of nothing but P and K to your plants.
