0-10-10 Ferts While Flowering?

I've got some Liquinox Bloom 0-10-10 that I bought to treat some plants that were showing plenty of N, but lacking in P and K. I applied it (quarter-strength) to my soil grow as needed during veg and gave one more drink when I moved my girls into flowering. Is this enough to see me through until harvest or do I need a different balance?

Because of the soil I'm using there aren't any N deficiencies and somehow I've managed to maintain a soil pH of 6.5-6.8 and I don't want to mess that up. I'm thinking of moving up to half-strength when it's feeding time again, but would like to know if I should get something else altogether.

Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post this in, but I kinda think this may be a common question for basic growing and the search function didn't return any meaningful results.

I would use something higher in P while flowering 20-30 would probably be a good number to look for.

What about N? Would you keep pushing it? So far, I haven't seen anything that high in P and K without a little N in it.

Also, wouldn't doubling the strength of what I'm giving them now (1/4 strength) be the same as if I were pushing a 0-20-20 at 1/4 strength?

N is easy to suppliment and as long as you don't over fertilize the plant will only take up what it needs.

Why are you giving them 1/4 strength? Unless you are feeding every time you water then you'll end up underfeeding.

I'm doing 1/4 strength because they are in pots, and I don't want to over-do it.

I was going to ease into something higher.

As they get larger they can take the full strength nutes. I've been burned over feeding so it's always better to be safe then sorry.
