You could get potassium nitrate (aks: Stump Remover) at Lowes, Home Depot, or Walmart. A 5 lb bag is about $10 to $12 & no shipping ... The NPK is 13-0-44.

You need to apply 1.9 lb during the growing season to the fertilizer you are using. that is 1.5 lb (target application) -.65 (applied) = .85 lb (additional needed) .85 / .44 = 1.9 lbs .... This will also give additional 1.9 lb x 13% = .25 lbs nitrogen. .... Added to your number above (.97+.25=1.23) lb N and (.65+.85= 1.5 lb) K .... perfect !...
