Just give them that 4.8 water or even lower because you want to shoot for under 7.0 pH.
I'm not adding any ferts to the 5 bagseed plants. I am using big bloom on the 2 newly spouted W.S.'s because it is suggested for the first 2 weeks for seedlings in the fox farm feeding schedule. It says that it won't burn plants and will help promote root growth. My posts are a little confusing; the first post was about the 5 one month old plants, and the second post was about the 2 brand new plants. Big bloom is a very weak fert(0.01-0.3-0.7) and I had never heard of using it on seedlings until I read fox farms suggestions. It's mainly used w/ tiger bloom in the flowering phase.
