You sound fresh on the block, if so, I recommend a two part fertilizer, floranova is great and easy to use. One is grow while the other is bloom. Read up on Nutrients and micro nutrients to gain a better understanding of individual needs before investing in a product line.
2cents.

The three numbers indicate the relative concentrations of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P), and Potassium (K). As a general rule, your plants will want a higher concentration of N during the vegetative phase, and a higher concentration of P during the flowering phase. Therefore, it would make sense that the 2-3-1 ratio is appropriate once you are bringing the plant into their flowering cycle, since it would indicate a higher level of phosphorous than nitrogen or potassium.

either that or those are the ratios of grow-micro-bloom to use. Hard to say without more info I guess

by clicking that button at the top right of their post that says "quote" 
Can you link us to the post where they mention the 2-3-1 so we know if it's NPK or GMB?

Someone explained to me on another forum that when people say 1-1-1 1-3-2 etc it's tsp per gal of whatever component.

I don't think that's a very good rule of thumb to use. What if someone says 4-3-3? Is that ml/gallon, tsp/gallon or NPK? there's really just no way to know without the author specifying and assuming incorrectly could be fatal to your plants
