    Hi and welcome to the forum
    The dose is 20ml / 5 litres so you'd need a scant T-spoon for 1 litre

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

    I use a mini measuring ‘jug’ that can measure up to 50mls of liquid.. i previously bought it in a baking supplies shop and who knew it would end up measuring tomato fertiliser one day ha!

    Just do the arithmetic - it must say on the bottle or container how much to use?
    It's basic division.
    There are evn unit converter sites online for working out volumes  :)

    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    You could measure 4ml using a childrens dosing syringe as supplied with calpol etc.
