Sharyn,
I became so wraped up in procedure that I think I missed your question,"Are my fertilizers ok to use?" I agree with Jerry, do not go out and buy other fertilizer. Just mix the stock solutions according to package instructions and apply in a regular sequence. Consider 20:14:13 "balanced" and 11:35:13 a "bloom booster". The numbers are close enough.
Jerry makes a point about the impact of the growing medium, and another writer suggests watching the plant's flowering cycle to apply fertilizer. As we become more involved with orchids, accumulating knowledge, I will bet much of this will become an "art", done by feel. Until that time a few years down the road, I'm with you.
