I'm a first time grower and have a small garden outside. Throughout the vegetation period, I used some simple 17-17-17 fertilizer I came across at the local store. Dynamite is the name of the brand, and it is claimed to be very long lasting. I only applied the fertilizer three of four times during the vegetative period and witnessed substantial growth.
The garden began to flower a few weeks ago and I now have some very strong, hearty looking buds forming. I plan on harvesting within the next two to three weeks, depending on the weather, and I've yet to put any bloom-specific fertilizer into the soil. Should I pick up something that is not long lasting and apply, or wait and hope there is enough nutrients left from the Dynamite I applied a little over a month ago? The buds appear to be very strong and the aroma is breathtaking, but they are very fluffy and not very dense. I'm hoping they will fill out within the next few weeks, but wanted to know if fertilizing now is a poor choice. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Here's a picture.
