How much Ferti-lome Soil Acidifier Plus Iron do a put on a vegetable gardern?

That has 8 plants and is 8ft x 4 ft for a vegatable. I did one gallon mix and put all of that on the plants in my vegetable garden. I do not know if that is too much or too little Please advise need to get PH down from around 8 to 6.5

Answer:

Per the Ferti-lome Soil Acidifier Plus Iron Label: Shake well before use. Make a dilute solution by mixing fertl-lome SOIL ACIDIFIER PLUS IRON as follows: 

2 tablespoons (1 fl. oz.) per gallon of water
1 pint in 16 gallons of water = to cover 500 sq. ft. of lawn area or vegetable area
1 quart in 32 gallons of water 
1 gallon in 128 gallons of water 

Pour this diluted mixture on the ground over the root feeding area of the plants. Water the soil under the plants before applying mixture. Water the mixture in after applying it. Repeat application at 2-3 week intervals until plants regain normal color and growth.
