Wait to fertilize, the seed dna has a lot of oomph... You want to let it fill out a lot before fertilizing. Then a light sprinkle will do. I use an organic food I got in a 30# bag.. It has all sorts of natural ingredients, ie. vegetation (alfalfa, etc), in it, plus corn meal that helps keep the soil fresh. I will get the name of it for you if ya like. It only takes a pinch or 2 for each (small) plant,and a tablespoon for a gallon size. I have a lot less concern about burning up my plants now with it.
Those look like Moonvine sprouts there, and they don't need fertilizing until they are getting closer to blooming. They usually bloom when they have reached the top of the trellis, and can't go up any further. Even if the trellis is only a couple feet high... Lots of vines are like that.
