I use a few different brands of fertilizer but always start with a balanced feeding at the beginning of the season and for mature plants I switch to a bloom booster for the remainder of the growing season. I d/c all feeding about a month before it's time for them to go dormant. They are fed 1x/wk. I also use epsom salts (1x/mo), SnG trio, kelp extract and some other odds and ends (every 2 weeks). Superthrive at the beginning and end of the season or after transplanting.

Many moons ago we ran the gambit of fertilizers but feel it's a personal issue as to what one can afford. There are some fertilizers that will do your plants in quickly but again if you aren't planning on keeping them around then again it's a personal choice.
