That's simple to interpret, but requires a bit of calculating.

First you'll have to measure the height of the (relaxed) spring, then divide that figure by 2.

Each time you turn a nut 32 times, you just drove it down exactly one inch.

Calculate how many turns you need to reach the half compression.

Let us know how it goes!
