MG All Purpose Plant Food?

So I have MG all purpose plant food (all I could get) and want to start feeding today or tomorrow.

does anybody else use this? If so how much do you mix with water?

box says, "For indoor plants mix 1/2tsp with 1 gallon of water. feed every 2 weeks."

Obviously I wont pour the whole gallon in, but I've heard to only mix 1/4 of labeled.

does that mean I only mix 1/8tsp with 1 gallon of water?

All help is appreciated.

ok. just making sure about that. When I feed, should I just use that like normal watering? as in give it like 1.5cups of nutewater mix that day, then resume normal watering with fresh water in 2 days when I water again?

Can anybody help me out with my other question? When I'm feeding, how should I water?

I water every 3 days at a 110%. Meaning, I pour water in until I see about 10% come back out. If your plants are on a drain table the extra runs off or just bring it to the sink when watering. This keeps them flushed out and residual build up to a minimum and is more like the watering they would get from rain.
