Guys.. No... I just wanted to point it out in a kindly manner for the op, he need to use his logic. He clearly asked this question also, but get unanswered, while he’s got good advices about the tree.
Here, I didn’t speak about bonsai, but speak about human logic, which field I have a bit more experience than with trees.
The most standard size watering cans wear numbers like 10l, 8l(7,5), 5l, 2,5l, etc... That’s why measuring caps on liquid fertilizers came with the manner to dosing easier for those cans. It’s just how easy to eyeballing half, quarter or thirds of those cups... When you eyeballing a less concentrated substance (e.g your standard, not too strong garden or potted plant fertilizer) doesn’t matter if you’re a bit over or under the perfect, cause won’t change too much on your concentration. At the point, where you get a fertilizer with 3ml to 8 liters, and you want to make 1 liter solution, the syringe come in handy. You can mess up very well and you could ending with a higher concentration what your plants cannot support without burning away the roots.. Syringe comes handy when you’re insecure or beginner with plants also.. just in case if we’re not the same. It’s like dosing ingredients for a cooking recipe. Different when you’re experienced and different when you try to learn.
Doesn’t matter what you use and how concentrated, YOU NEED to do the MATH accordingly..
Now, I hope we can roll over for the good...
