These are my babies! 1 week after they survived both nutes block and repotting. Should I start them on mild NPK or wait a bit and for how long should I wait?

A week after they survived? I would start very mild, even feeding every other water for a couple weeks then return to normal. Off subject......I've always wondered, what are the little round things at the top of the big pots. I always see them, never used them, and would think I'd know what it was, but nope....... Do they do anything in particular? I have some soil-borne pests, and was wondering if that stuff would help.

Those are clayton balls, the presumabely maintain the moisture in the soil and don't let the uppert layer dry up fast. Can't say if they really help, I can't see the upper layer no more, lol:weed:

can you just let them get over the shock ,they will let you know when they are lacking ,,,please just relax
I just don't want them to go through any more stress because of what I did to them, poor children:wall: what symptoms shall I look for when they are in need?

Wait a little bit. You dont want to over feed them.
the problem was that I started them on NPK 20-10-20 since day 1 (seedlings) and had them in a small pot for 3 weeks and they started to go yellow on the edges, so I flushed them and sttarted gicing them only drinking water, it got better but then there was no space for them anymore so I repotted them and now they look better, although some leaves tend to curl up a bit=underwatering?
