Same in chemistry my man.. I think what is happening here is people don't quite understand what a ratio is... We've also gone over that it would be unwise for a manufacturer to reduce the ratio downwards (which is often done in chemistry) and instead remain with the percentages (reducing down would make a fertilizer appear less concentrated than it actually was)
- the quantitative relation between two amounts showing the number of times one value contains or is contained within the other.
Just a thought. No worries.
it is a % ratio... a 3-3-3 % ratio is half of 6-6-6
% ratio...from what i read, i didn't make it up.
Sorry i should of proof read my post, 3-3-3 is a % by volume...3%-3%-3% is half of 6%-6%-6% that's a two to one ratio. But you are correct that it is a measurement of how much of each (npk) is in the product container.NPK it self is not a ratio. It's a measurement. That is why 3-3-3- is different than 6-6-6. Pretty simple really
Are you guys serious?
Nobody answered why NPK values don't get reduced down.......
why isn't 1-2-3 the same as 2-4-6
Anybody know the answer?
Exactly. You da man!Sorry i should of proof read my post, 3-3-3 is a % by volume...3%-3%-3% is half of 6%-6%-6% that's a two to one ratio. But you are correct that it is a measurement of how much of each (npk) is in the product container.
