"Fill top of cap and dissolve in one quart of
lukewarm water".

One quart = 32 ounces or about 100 ML

Not to undermine Billy's answer, but from a Canadian who is bilingual
(metric and imperial) a quart (US wet) is slightly less than one liter or
946 ml.

Subject: [IBC] Pokon bonsai food question

Hi.
This question may be more linguistic than botanic, but here I go:
yesterday I bought a bottle of Pokon 4-4-4 bonsai food. On the back of
the bottle it reads: "Fill top of cap and dissolve in one quart of
lukewarm water". What is "one quart"? Some sort of measure I'm unaware
of, or some misspelling or missing word.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Tia,
Ole K

That depends on whether it's a US quart or a British Imperial quart.
A US quart is 0.946 liters, an Imperial quart is 1.136 liters.

I'd play it safe and use the larger amount.

And as always the best way to use liquid fertilizer - especially - if
you use an inorganic soil mix - is to use a little often. For this 2
ml to 1 liter water everytime you water.

Go ahead and use a liter. It won't make any real difference.
