I wouldn't trust what the bag says about how long it feeds the plants. They didn't make that time frame with hardcore pot growers and their fert-crazy plants in mind. Once the plant is big enough for fertilizer, start giving it weak mixes and work your way up until it just begins to burn the lower leaf tips. Then pull back a little and make a note of the amounts for the future.

if you have like 2 or 3 nodes i would start with 1/4 then after 2 or 3 feeing bump it up to maybe 1/3 then 1/2 so on so on

Yes 6 nodes is easily twice the size where you could begin nutes but since there are some in the soil, I suppose you did. Start at maybe 1/3 strength and alternate feedings with pure water. Keep a close eye on them after feedings and increase strength each time as long as they are still ok. I think going up in thirds (1/3 strength, plain water, 2/3, plain water, full strength) would work alright for you.
