Jon,
A tablespoon per gallon would be too strong as a constant feed. I assume
you are putting it on once a week for a few weeks. Watch the color of your
newly opened leaves.....if they are dark green, cool it on the nitrogen. A
properly fertilized A.G. will have a nice healthy medium green to the new
foliage, that transforms to a dark green as the leaf gets large. If the new
leaves are dark green just use plain water for a few weeks until it
straightens out. Cornell Univ. has done studies that have proven that
excessive nitrogen will give you too much foliage, fruit set problems and
decreased yields
