Ideas modifying this nutrient for DWC?

I'm really not sure if it even needs modification. It's Florikan Dynamite, a polymer-coated time-release fertilizer. 13-13-13, of which 6.5% of the N is nitrate and the other 6.5% is ammonia. 1.2% water-soluble magnesium, 0.02% boron, 0.05% water soluble copper, 0.2% chelated iron, 0.06% water-soluble manganese, 0.02% molybdenum. I've just ground the stuff up in a coffee grinder, sifted the coating away with a fine mesh screen, and used a teaspoon per gallon for my DWC basil, and it has produced in one month more than I can use. I keep trimming it just to keep it short until my new Mr. Stripey clone starts taking off to the ceiling.

Should I do anything to modify this, or should I leave it alone? This seems to basically work out to 6.5-13-13, which is close to a tomato fertilizer I have as well.
