Looks decent... Still kind of small to feed though IMHO... I'd hold off til you have a couple more nodes and 2-3 inches in height... If you notice any yellowing of the rigid leaves before then start off with 1/8 strength vegging grow formula and root nutrient and then don't feed again til the height and nodes get bigger

Make you don't overwater these seedlings. No need to soak entire pot soil.

Are these photos or AUTOS .?
If they are AUTOS , here is a pretty foolproof feed schedule. ( without booster supplements or additives. ) this for Soil mixes like ( roots organic , Pro Mix HP or FFOF Fox Farms Ocean Forest ( I use this ). Most "Super Soil " mixes have more than enough nutrients for up to Week 4. I use PH WATER around 6.0 - 6.3.
1 week(seedling) – Ph adjusted water
2 week(start of vegetative) – Ph adjusted water
3 week(vegetative) – Ph adjusted water
4 week(pre-flowering) – 1/2 veg nutes
( important to stick with VEG nutes during PreFlower stage )
I flush during this week INSTEAD OF WATERING to clear medium for BLOOM
NUTES .
5 week(first flowers) – 1/4 bloom nutes
6 week(flowering) – 1/2 bloom nutes
7 week(flowering) – 1/2 bloom nutes
8 week(flowering) – Ph adjusted water
9 week(flowering & harvest) – Ph adjusted water till harvest
Some Strains CAN push further beyond harvest estimates , so adapt to your own grow.

So the cotyledons started to turn yellow and fall off, now the next set of leaves are yellow at the bottom. No nutes yet
Soil:ffof mixed +light warrior+perlite+lime
PHED water at 6.5
Any help on this? Thanks

What's the RH of the room please? . . . . .They look like they have been having trouble transpiring . . .
When I'm propagating seedlings, I keep a plastic bag over my pot for the first week sometimes the second, keeping RH in the bag to close to 98%, this stops it from transpiring and forces good root growth in search of oxygen.
Bag em up, or cut tops off of plastic bottles and use the bottoms, literally watch the leaves rise and point to the sky!!
That's some monster perlite, what ratios??

Eh no wait what . . . . . .drop . . . . .no raise . . . . .wait even longer . . . . .. PH . . . . .no . . . . RH . . .. lol
Raise the relative humidity by placing bags over the entire pot, or cut bottles.

If your PH is bang on . . . . . . then there are signs of P deficiency . . . . .
THE only thing it's trying to do now is grow a foundation, needs a load of P to do that . . . . . see the blue bigger leaves and the brighter greener top newer leaves, (having a problem emerging coz energy levels are depleting.) . . . .pretty good sign of Phosphorous on it's way out . . . . .. though I'd try folia feeding a week bloom formula over her first to see the reaction to it . . . .dont wanna go and soak the medium on a guess . . . . ..
Also at low RH, Potassium will get munched trying to sustain itself . . . .

Clear plastic cups??? If so great . . .. no holes . . . . .seal her up . . .
BUT rather than banging up the humidity straight up, balance the cup on a few perlite stones so there is a small gap at the bottom . . . . . . .leave it like that for a few days . . . .them SEAL HER IN . . . gently raising the RH
