New Grower question about NPK

[green76]

hi all just a quick question......
a while ago i brought some cana terra flores the npk is 2.2.4.id read that the higher the k for flowering the better. so while i was in th e garden centre i saw some just standard multi purpose liquid feed that was 5.4.8. so would that be better than canna as it has twice as much k???? i know its a nooby question but i was just wondering.
im growing a couple of photos at the min theryre on about their third week of flowering .
thank you.

Play safe and get a bud booster meant for cannabis mate, the liquid feed for tomatoes etc. is way too strong for cannabis plants afaik!

5.4.8 is a bit too much nitrogen for autos in full flower. I'd stay with the 2.2.4 and add a bloom booster as Bilbo recommended.

Muddy, question than? How are the grow more nutes (I.e. The 16-16-16) do so well on cannabis? Those numbers sound so damn high but I'd be darn the stuff works great! Don't really understand all the nute numbers etc... Need to read more up on the subject...
:Sharing One:
Ahh edit: DOH! Autos in full flower... So the 4-26-26 means nitrogen is 4 right? lol even the guys at the hydro store looked at the bottles funny and said these will work? I said yup seen a bunch of grows done with them that came out great!

My booster is a PK 9/18. I think the only one in the US was Hammerhead 9/18 but it disappeared because of undisclosed reasons. Luckily over here in the EU we've got food safe Buddhas Tree 9/18

I tried Vitalink Bud Booster, probably helped but no obvious signs and being a complete noob I've got bugger all to compare it to but man when you add that 9/18 the plants smell awesome the next day and a couple of days later it looks like it's been decorated with cake frosting! I'm adding it to the current grow in a week or so, I'll post comparison pics so you can see what you think.
