Hozon Siphon info
I know I asked about this a long time ago but again, I need a math formula
to work out the amount of fert I use. The Hozon is a 16 : 1 ratio. eg..... 1oz of fert to 1gal of water I also mostly use a 2gal container & would want 1/4 strength? HELP! Cheers Wendy |

Cheers Wendy 128 oz to the gallon...So the system will pick up 8 oz of liquid per gallon. So if you 1 oz per gallon, you need to do an 8 to 1 dilution (e.g. 1 pint per gallon or 1 quart per 2 gallons) |
That is very helpful - Thank you!
I never knew how this was calculated before and I think I might understand it now. |

Thanks Doug,
So one would divide 16 into the amount of water/fert required for the ratio? What if it was 1 Tablespoon to a gal?

Then you'd mix 16 tablespoons to a gallon of concentrate.
