I would like to know how much of liquid potassium fertilizer I need to use to raise my ppm in my patch. My last soil test showed that I will need to raise my K. I have some liquid 2-0-25. I used the online soil calculator and it will take quite a bit of dry fertilizer to raise my levels to where I want them. I have purchased a few lbs of dry 0-0-25, but at this rate it will cost me quite a bit. Is there a calculation that I can use to figure out how many lbs of my dry fertilized would be equal to how many quarts or gallons the liquid fert.? thanks Kathy

Why not just add the liquid fert to your daily watering and not worry about the deficiency.I would do both broadcast some granular to build it up in the soil.Liquid fert might wash out if used all at once.Trickle feed!
