Question Are certain fertilizers better for different plants?

I have mostly bulbos, is there a certain formula fertilizer that is better for them? Tried searching the forums and couldn't find a thread. Also, Does anyone suggest a good bloom formula fertilizer?

Certainly individual plants have varying nutritional needs, but I don't believe the precise formulas for different orchids has been established. Heck, there are probably differences simply between individuals of the same species!

There is no such thing as a "booster" fertilizer to enhance flowering. The best way to get good, consistent flowering is to raise a plant well and feed it a complete diet so that it can be as healthy as possible, and that requires the use of a very complete fertilizer. The Dyna-Gro "Grow" formula and the Greencare "MSU" formulations are very good.
