Default Fertilizer Question

I am new to Vegetable gardening, I have done some hydroponics, but no Tomatoes. I just received some seeds from Victory Seeds and will be germinating them really soon.
I am either going to use 2 containers, both 18 gallon Totes and am inclining toward a simple holes in the bottom design rather than the EarthTainer3. But am still undecided.
What ever way I go I will be adherring to what I learned in Hydroponics. Different Ferilizers for different stages with a flush between Veg and Flower and Flower to Bloom. With a indoor Gardening Store about 150 yards away I have my choice of a variety of brands, Foxfire, Roots, Nectar for The Gods (I do like that Name..), etc. All are Organic and I do know that Foxfire uses Tomatos for testing all their products, another plus. It also seems that their Potting Soil/Grow media, Roots Organic and Foxfire Happy Frog are both ideal for container use, with either a Coco or Humus base with Guano, kelp and worm castings, and perlite galore. Both are designed for good drainage.
So has anyone tried this method with similar products ?
