Fertilizing new sprouts?

Hello everyone,

I got some mystery seeds from the local nursery and decided what the heck let try and germinate them. (I got a new heat mat an such so got excited to try it)

My question is alot of people post pics of germination and sprouts and so on, mine sprouted but after a few weeks look healthy but only have their "starter leaves" and nothing else.

Should I fertalizer sprouts? I have them set up in red solo cups with drainage holes to bottom water, how would I fertalize from the bottom if I should?

Info: the sprouts have spent 20, 30, an hour, 2 hours outside and the rest of the time in a sunny window.

Thanks, I don't have Internet right now when I do I will try and post pics.

make sure your light is only about an inch away from your sprouts, you should lightly feed them after 3 or 4 sets of leaves
