I'm just wondering if an NPK rating of 11-35-15 is good and whether or not orchid bloom booster will work for marijuana. That's it. Is that so hard? No one seems to know lol...

in my opinion its a bit high but the higher P will be good for flowering any flowering additive can help i personally have used Superbat's Budswel 100% organic hydro solution for the past year and half, i just mix that with my water for soil plants and i definatly see a difference in growth on a daily basis its npk is 0.25=0.25=0.25 hydroponic feeds are often very low in npk just remember when finding a feed that works for you less is more if trying new products i start at about 25% what the label says then slowly bring it up until i see the tips of the leafs burn slightly too much feed will kill marijuana very quickly. on my last harvest i wasnt able to come across my desired feed as there was no hydro shops around and bought some mix in fertilizer for my potting soil it was 10-10-10 and the plants seem to really like it even still i used less than the bag said and when used injuntion with the budswell the ladies are loving it ohhh and also big thing when chosing soil make sure it has rapid release nutrients for high yield fruit\vegetable and flowers, most household soil has slow release and so plants grow slower longer.... using a liquid feed would off set that some

During flowering that would be ideal.
During veg stages, you preferably want more (n) nitrogen for the leaf matter.
But honestly, any food is better then no food if thats all you have. I usally use high nitrogen fert in the beginning and change to a bloom formula later on!

Yeah I forgot to mention that they are about 2 weeks into flowering and they are outdoor plants.
