Re: Liquid fert dilution
Powerfeed and Seasol come as a concentrate and must be diluted as per the instructions on the bottle. Seasol isn't a fert but a conditioner. Always slowly build up strengths and applications of fert to make sure it's not too strong for your trees.

Re: Liquid fert dilution
Use whatever th Bottle says to use.
Seasol that I sues, 100ml per 10L water
Miracle grow, 1 scoop for 10 L water.

These are concentrated fertilisers. Of course follow the dilution rates on the label. Using stronger solutions can lead to overdose and death (of the plant)
If you are asking should you dilute even more for bonsai ( a coomon misconception) the answer is no - bonsai are just plants so follow the directions for potted plants.
