Yes, but there are different sources for the nutrients. There are about 5 sources for the nitrogen component (ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulfate etc). I haven't found any information about which source is better for this or that result. I rely on good compost for most of my garden nutrients because it as it has all the micro nutrients they took up when the composted plants were alive. I do use a little cheap fertilizer that has the analysis that I want. For most things that is a balanced blend 10-10-10 or 20-20-20. The later is cheaper to use because you only need half as much. The corn patch gets more nitrogen (20-10-10).
