I have found a potful of feathermeal and I'm about to make a new batch of JInr.2/DIY.
Would you advise to crush the pellets of dolomite, superphosphate and potassium phosphate prior to mixing?

Also, the feather meal is not dry, but slightly moist (seems normal) and it is recommended to add 200g per 100 L. It seems quite a bit to add :o ???
Any comments on this amount?

Thanks in advance; you're very helpful!
