Wyeast Nutrient Blend how much to use?

Directions say .5 tsp. per 5 gallons. So if I want to make a starter .1tsp per gallon? Also, If i use in a starter, should I also use in my wort?

I add a pinch to my starters and still add 1/2 tsp to my wort.

I knew a couple brewers who did that and were consumed by their own ravenous mutated giant yeast.

Ohhhhhh, the horror!  ;D

Wasn’t there a movie about that?

Well, as Mr Garrison says: “there are no stupid questions, only stupid people”. Thanks everyone!

I’ve been adding .5 tsp to the starter and another .5 tsp to the wort (5 gal).  That 5 gallons is churning in 4-5 hours and I have to say that my primary requires a blow off tube.  Too much?  Maybe next time I will go with a pinch instead of .5 tsp in the starter.
