Don't know anything about your grow so can't get specific but a good rule of thumb is to start with half the recommended dose on the bottle/bag and see how your plants react and adjust from there.

This is what you are looking for.
Calculate 200ppm N for seedlings.
300 - 400 PPM N for Veg.

for me it all depends on how big the pot is. a 3 gallon pot will take roughly 1/2 gallon of water and you will get a little runoff. a 5gallon pot can take up to a gallon of water and get a little runoff. i use a pressure sprayer to water my plants. i should mention that. you can simulate a light rain very easily with one. and get a really even saturation through the entire pot.
