If you're going to wal-mart, I've had success with MG Bloom booster. It's got 15-30-15 NPK, and I never saw any real problems. It does however, lack some trace elements. In some strains I have, I get a slight Mg deficiency. I combat this from the start by pre-mixing the soil, making sure to adjust PH to prevent nute lock and other problems, and mixing a fert solution like this:
1 tablespoon "Bloom booster"
1/2 teaspoon epsom salt -- (Magnesium sulfate)
1 Gallon of water
It works well. Obviously this is just for flowering, but I use the epsom salts at any sign of Mg deficiency. Start off slow with half the dosages, then at 3rd watering go to full dose and pour a whole gallon through it. Make sure you don't re-use what comes out the bottom. I normally catch it to check the PH. Too high or too low, and I adjust the water for the next feeding.
As I said before, everything I suggest is just what I do, or what I would do. There are so many varying circumstances such as strain, soil, environment, water type used, etc., etc., etc...... that all I can say, is I hope I have helped, and good luck. I'd like to know how it turns out.
