Wait at least 10-14 days...they have a snack pack built in....
And when you use the FF, give them half the recommended dosage

Welcome to 
Usually, it’s best to wait until there are at least a couple sets of “true” leaves before starting a weak feeding (1/4 to 1/2 strength). You should definitely be providing nutrition by the time the cotyledons (those first little leaves) start to turn yellow.
Good luck!

Thanks this is my first go at it. Also everyone is saying I messed up by not starting in a smaller pot before putting them in my 3 gallon fabric pots. Will this affect it too much
You're fine...I started mine in 30 gallon pots....
3 gallon is on the small side for an outdoor grow...a bigger pot holds more soil, which allows more roots and water retention which is handy if it is a hot dry summer....
Consider a 10 gallon...
They’re very small still. Nothing to stop you from putting them in smaller pots now. But Blew is right, as long as you know how to water, you will be fine. And @Emilya can help you with that.
I used 3-gallon pots just to get the seedlings strong, then straight into 30-gallons....
If you start moving the seedling around now you risk shocking it...she will be fine...until she needs a bigger pot

No problem starting with 3 gal. S.p.’s as long as there not overwatered ! And the ph is 6.2 to 6.7 for soil, I use a Dixie cup so as not to over water. Hope this helps.
