Ok, here is the Gospel. No one here can tell you when to start feeding. If they do, they are full of SHIT. Here is why. You have not told us what kind of soil you are useing. If you are useing something like Miracle Grow or Scotts soil with Nutrients, you will most likely burn your plants for sure. If you are useing something like COCO or FoxFarm you could get away with 25% strength. Do not be in a big hurry to feed your plants. Go slow and easy.

You should wait until your plants are at least two weeks old before you feed them in any soil. For MG or Scott or the likes 3-4 weeks.

So to answer your question... HELL NO do not feed them yet. I can not tell you when to start feeding, but I do know it is still to soon.
 
im growing in soil, bio bizz. all mix, the size of the pots are{ two of them are in 20 cm tall by about 10 cm wide, the other plant is in a prety massive pot not sure the size.
 
Just like lord said "its too early" The plant in the big pot may not need to be fed for a month or more. The little one by the time it needs to be fed you will be ready to transplant it to a bigger pot and the fresh soil will feed it for again a month or 2. When they slow down growing or turn a tad yellow then its time. If they are green then they are fed and dnt need any.
 
I will tell you this. If you follow those Schedules, you will usually burn your plants. They want you to buy, buy, buy,, so they make it as soon and as much Nuts as possible with the plants that need it the soonies, like tomatoes or something. Do as you wish. I really do not know that soil or those Nuts, but with all others, I only go half what they say a few weeks later.
 
patience my friend. dont wait until a deficiency but wait until they want nutes. if they look healthy its cause they are. if they show signs of stress in lower leaves its too late and the damage happend a while ago. its the new growth you want to worry about and nute burn is the fastest way to get it. less is better
