As long as the nutrients are for hydroponic plants they should contain all the micro elements that aren't in soil nutrients. Then it's just a mater of matching the plants your growing (Vegetative, Blooming, and /or continuously fruiting) with the type you get.

But don't over think it. I don't mean to say that a nutrient that's for Vegetative growth wont grow plants that flower (or visa versa). Just that a nutrient designed for flowering plants will produce better for flowering plants. And a nutrient that's designed for Vegetative growth, will produce better for plants that you don't want to flower (because you want then to focus on growing foliage rather than flowering).

P.S.
Some nutrients are 2 and/or 3 part nutrients that need all the parts to work and supply all the necessary elements. Just make sure you know if they are a one, two, or three part nutrient, and make sure you get all the parts necessary if they require multiple parts. Also make sure you know/understand the mixing instructions. Every manufacture is different.
