Some flower, tomatoe and pepper nutes are good for pot. The recomended NPK is 10-10-10 for veg and 10-30-20 for flower. If you find something close it will work. Good Luck!

Just pickup some heavy Phosphate fertz for flowering and some Superthrive for micro nutrients. Get as high of a number in P as you can, but if you get something really hot you need to introduce it slowly.

If you go crazy with the P you are gonna lock out other nutes and cause a deficency. I have found if you stick with the 10-30-20 NPK or close to it you prevent deficencys. I have FF OpenSesame 5-45-19, BeastieBloomz 0-50-30 and ChaChing 9-50-10. They all cause deficencys because of too much P. The only one I use anymore is the Open Sesame mixed with Supernatural bloom 14-9-19 for a NPK of 19-54-38 which is very close to 10-30-20 and my plants respond with good growth and yields. You will decide. Peace out!

I start with 10-10-10 and then bump up to a 20-10-10 if my plants look N defic. For Flowering, its like Bubba Kushman said, start with some 10-30-20 and go from there. Garden centers have tons ferts and shit. I just got some powdered local brand stuff that the old guy workin' there said was good for his tomatos.

I also agree with what he says about high P. It might seem like plants have no ceiling when it comes to certain nutes at certain times, but the chemistry going on in the medium often has mechanisms to deal with equilibrium going off balance...I was about to start talkin' about Ph, and phosphates...whoa
