An Osmocote Application Rate Question

I mixed some Osmocote 14-14-14 in with my soil mix earlier in the year, and would like to top dress it now. I cannot find any suggestion for application rate on the package for container gardening, but it does state that 1-1/3 TBS is recommended per 4 square feet. I'm using typical 5 gallon buckets, which have roughly a square foot surface area. Based on that, I'm thinking 1 tsp per container would be sufficient. Can anyone confirm my assumption, or set me straight if I'm wrong. Thanks.
