I wanted to combine a 8-2-8 with a 0-0-22 but I am not sure of the correct ratio. I would think 4 parts to one would get me about a 8-2-13 mix but the guy at the fertilizer place says it doesn't work that way. I can get those mixes in 50 pound bags. So I have been using the 8-2-8 with a top dressing of the 0-0-22. It seems to work but i would like to have the correct mix if I could.
