I would pot them up to reduce legginess and the roots competing with each other. I think they need mostly nitrogen at this point. The fish ferts will work, as long as your winter is over and it isn't going to get cold again. The MG will work too, but you don't need the extra P & K that it has in it. Osmocote is a great time-release fertilizer for potted plants and very easy to use. Small containers of it are about $6 at Wal-Mart.
