In 20 years I have not used a fertilizer of any type on seedlings...When they start to look lighter green, it is generally about time to plant them in the ground...I know there are different situations and sometimes weather etc., might prevent planting out on time, but I have found the plants will green up and take off pretty fast again...Seems a lot more trouble is caused by over fertilizing and watering than plain neglect...I will admit I tried a seaweed foliar spray 2 years ago...Don't know if it helped , but I guess I felt better for doing it...
