i saw a pic of a soil bag that had the numbers for NPK as a decimal

when everyone here talks about these numbers, are they talking about the left side of the decimal point or are they on the right side

so is it like this
2 /2 /2
-or-
.2 /.2 /.2

its whole numbers or part thereof.
with higher number theres more chance of burning or overferting.
.2/.1/.3 is less concentrated than 2/1/3, but theres a lot more to it than that tho too.
theres some articles in the faq on the subject if you want to read up on it

i looked on the back of the bag of some soil
it says .21/.07/.14
yet it says feeds up to 3 months

i don't get it. i've seen stuff like...
20/8/14
10/5/5

why are some this high when the ones i saw on a bag are in decimals

i'll go check out the faq's as you suggest also

thanks
