Pot size/fertilizer for seedlings?

20 years ago

I've got several hundred annuals, perennials and tomatoes started well under lights. Many are now 4" or higher, and they are all in pots about 3 inches square.

I've been fertilizing them with a VERY weak 10-52-10 every week or so,and most are looking fine. However, a few dahlias have some yellowish bottom leaves.

Would that indicate a need for a different fertilizer...or might it be the small pot size?

Knowing it's probably four weeks before these can go into containers or beds, is it a good idea to repot them into larger pots?

How do others handle this?
