To fertilize or not to fertilize

I am a novice gardener and I've had varying degrees of success. One of the things that I'm still not clear about is fertilizing. When I first started, I definitely did not feed my plants well because I didn't understand the timing of how it all needed to come together. This growing season, which is my third, I'm getting a little more adept; however, I still don't know when to use which fertilizer when.

Once my seedlings were established, I fertilized them with Vigoro and that has been a rousing success. Now that my Persian cucumbers are blooming I'm frozen because I don't want to under-fertilize but I don't want to over-fertilize either. Is now even a good time to introduce a different fertilizer? The fertilizer I have for blooms is Incredible Bulb as well as fruit and bloom booster.

Fertilize or chill?
