I usually add the same ratio of A&B fertilizers, is there any harm in mixing both powders into one container for easier use?

I believe that the different chemicals react with each other in high concentrations and become unavailable to the plant. I have seen growers make solution of each A&B dissolved but always kept separate till diluted in rez.

They come in a and b parts for a reason, read the instructions, one is usually fully dissolved first, then the next part added.

This^^^^^^. You'll get precipitation, if you try mixing them in all at once.
