All plants are different. Some you can dump nutes on and they love it, some you get one ppm too high and they go sideways.
When I feed, I mix in every component it calls for on the schedule for that week. For me, I drop all the nutes by half for starters, but will go by what the plant says. If it looks iffy I'll drop them further, if not I may bump some of the things up, but usually not the primary fertilizers.
All the stuff has N, P, or K. Some of it is just naturally occurring because of the organic material contained, some is chemically processed base elements. Those base elements are what can cause nute burn. You would have to dump a lot of the Big Bloom into the plant to burn it because of the almost nonexistent NPK. So I am not as stingy with it.
Hope that makes sense.
