I’ll suggest a brush up of basics.
Germination should start quickly, I suggest a temperature in the range of 80 – 85 ° till germination starts, then lower. Soil kept wet constantly, beware of evaporation.
Then correct balance between temperature and watering will come with experience.
Fertilizers can do no harm if doses are correct. When to use them ? it will depend on the quality of the pottering mix you bought or mixed yourself. Some have few nutrients to make the seedlings start more roots, they quickly need fertilizers, the seedlings should be transplanted quickly. Other mixes are more rich and you can wait a bit more.
Why not start another batch of seedlings, Texas is not Alaska !
