I hate to say it, but you bought the wrong kind of soil. Slow-release nutes like that can and usually will give your plant nute burn. What is the premixed NPK ratio? If it's low enough, there should be no problem. I use soil with extremely small traces of NPK, under .2 each.

As for actually giving the plants ferts, I would still give them to 'em, but a bit less than you would otherwise have.
