At a given temperature there is a limit to how much of anything will remain in solution with water. So, you need to stay under that limit for each of the fertilizers dissolved into your fertilizer cocktail. Since most of the fertilizer is KNO3, that is really the limiting factor. You don't really need the K2SO4, so it might help to omit it.
