I got this liquid fertiliser concentrate. It has 12% nitrogent.1.7% phosphorous and 7% potassium. I have some seaweed fertiliser as well. I think mixing the two would give me micro nutrients. Should I put some ebsom salts in the brew. My water container holds about 10 litres of water. Do you think I could use this brew safely I am hoping to grow lettuce tomatoes cucumber and capsicum.

Welcome to the forum!

I'm no expert at this, but that nutrient solution sounds like something more for greens or herbs - vegetative growth - and adding some seaweed nutrients would be more N, along with the micronutrients. Also, the volume is very small for one of those fruiting plants, unless it is a dwarf variety. Even greens, once they get larger, use up a lot of water fast.
