Default A good, "All Round" Veggie fertilizer (???)

Hello,
Newbie gardner here that is trying hard. I'm in North Florida and am
gardening in raised beds. Have a little bit of all the common stuff in and
up but it just doesnt seem to be "taking off".
May I ask the more experienced folks out there what a good "All-Round"
fertilizer to side dress my plants and rows might be? Maybe this is what I
might need to kick them into "gear"?
I bought a bag of 10-10-10 but have not used it yet. Thought I might ask
ya'll first. I dont think a liquid fertilizer would be my best bet because
most of our soil down here is a mix of clay and sand. Being I'm in raised
beds that drain well, I feel a liquid fertilizer would get "washed out"
before the plants have a chance to get to it.
Comments or suggestions?

Thank you in advance for you time.
Dave...Down in Florida
