KK, you are so right that Potassium is extremely beneficial in setting blooms, but most "Bloom Booster" fertilizers here in the United States have a high middle number and are high in Phosphorus. I don't know if it is different there in Australia where you are. The best fertilizers for blooming a lot of things seem to be the ones with the highest Potassium number, the last number, like 5-10-20. I'm sure you are right about the slow-release benefit.
