For liquid hydroponics nutes, can the individual N P and K mg/ml be calculated from the NPK ratio?
For example, GH Micro has a 5-0-1 NPK ratio. I think that means N is 5% by weight. Searching says there are 1000mg/ml, but I think that means plain water.
Is the GH Micro N mg/ml close to 5% of 1000mg/ml? So 50mg of N per ml? K would be 10mg/ml?
The reason I ask is that there is a hydroponics study that shows max cannabinoids at different mg/ml of N and P (the study said they apparently used too high of a range of K so couldn't determine optimal values of K, meaning that commercial growers use more K than necessary).
