no familiar with technaflora line, but in general u should start feeding once ur seedlings have completed their 3rd week (unless leaves r yellowing) and u should start with a 1/4 dosage of the recommended feeding on the nutes. so if it says 1 tsp per gallon, u use 1/4 tsp per gallon. u should only need about a tsp of lime...if u mean by stadium cup, just a big cup, like about 32 oz.
Hey thanks for the fast reply. I meant that my seeding is in a 32 oz cup(those red cups) and I wanna know how much lime per a cup of water should I add. Should I keeping adding it every time I water and feed? Thanks again.

yw...no just mix a tsp of dry lime into ur soil mix. everytime u water, it will automatically adjust ur soil a bit. if u find ur ph getting out of hand later in ur grow, u can then amend the soil to include a bit of lime sprinkled over top of the soil for the same basic effect when u water. & fyi 
those red cups r affectionately known here as party cups, although they r usually 16oz...which urs r probably as well. hopefully ur going to transplant again into a bigger pot after that, & then u can add more lime to the new soil. how old r they? because generally I go straight from seed planted in party cup to then final 3 gallon bucket.

I started germination in little peat pots with same soil mix. They seem to be growing really fast!yw...no just mix a tsp of dry lime into ur soil mix. everytime u water, it will automatically adjust ur soil a bit. if u find ur ph getting out of hand later in ur grow, u can then amend the soil to include a bit of lime sprinkled over top of the soil for the same basic effect when u water. & fyi
