How often to add fertilizer?


I have these biker billy jalapeƱo seedlings. I started them in April 3rd and now they have their first set of true leaves and working on the second set. My question is about fertilizing them. I watered them with a 1/8 strength solution of Dyna-Gro a few days ago but I donā€™t know how often should I water them with the added fertilizer. Is it ok to do it every time I water them or I should keep it once a week?
Thank you all for your advice

    Personally I wouldnā€™t add anything until you transplant them into larger pots.

    Once per pot at the most and probably don’t do it when you just repotted them bc they’ll be stressed

    I do 1/8 strength fertilizer every few days/twice a week at where your plants are. I donā€™t see your NPK, but make sure itā€™s low, like all 5 or below. Otherwise itā€™s synthetic fertilizer and will burn the plants or deposit salts in the soil thatā€™ll build up over time.
