Reference this discussion at http://fins.actwin.com/aquatic-plant.../msg00317.html. They listed the following:
It seems the ratio of N-P-K is about 7:1:7.Code:Here are the ratios of elements in typical plant tissue from a table given by George from adapted from from the Feb, 1988 "Today's Aquarium, the International Magazine of the Optimum Aquarium", ("Aquarium Heute" in German), published by Aquadocumenta Verlag GmbH. Units are mg/Kg. Oxygen 48,000 Carbon 36,000 Hydrogen 6,000 Potassium 3,600 Nitrogen 3,200 Sulphur 660 Calcium 650 Phosphorus 460 Magnesium 210 Iron 15 Trace elements 10
Not sure if I am correct, but I would get something close to this ratio. But also have to consider what are the NO3 and PO4 levels in your tank.

hi
would like to add on to this article
different plants have different ratios of elements
some plants like to concentrate certain elements more than others
i wouldn't be too overly concerned with NPK for fert
