Yea that's not advised. You are aiming for those numbers in your soil, if you don't know what your soil has then you can't really aim there, and there is a fair amount of chemistry and biology that goes on in managing nutrient depletion and replenishment in crop science.
Trust the pros at Fox Farms - Grow Big is an excellent general feed nutrient for a wide variety of plants, including hops. Also Maxicrop - Liquid Seaweed. You can probably find both of these, or something very similar, at your nearest hydro/specialty gardening store. I wouldn't use amazon unless you don't have one of those nearby. When you get them just follow their instructions on the bottle for a light feed, and I would feed every time or every other time you water. Which would come out to about once weekly, weakly :)
Also wanted to make sure you saw my edit above:
>Ed: for some reason they gave those nutes in the slide in weird order. Nutes are given in N-P-K, Nitrogen Phosphorous Potassium. So if they need 3% nitrogen, .5% phosphorous, and 2% potassium you are really looking for 3-.5-2. That might explain something as well, if you are using 3-2-.5 fertilizer, you are giving 4x as much phosphorous and 1/4 as much potassium as is recommended. Let me find a better article, those slides are not the greatest
I use the FoxFarm on my outside stuff. For veggie I use http://www.amazon.com/FoxFarm-FX14006-1-Quart-Liquid-Concentrate/dp/B0049XEG2M/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1377720155&sr=8-10&keywords=foxfarm. Its a good basic starter food before bloom.
