Fertilizing Corn with blood meal ?

I picked up some blood meal to fertilize my corn with. As I understand it, I should fertilize the corn when it's about knee high. I've read you shouldn't overuse blood meal, so how much should I use per plant when it comes time to fertilize? Also, when I prepped the area I used Plant-Tone fertilizer (5-3-3). Should I reapply this as well or possibly mix it 50/50 with the blood meal?

This is my first time trying corn. My daughter wanted me to plant it, so I did. It's only a 4x4 area so we'll see how it goes. I'm going to plant another 4x4 section in a week or two.
