Get some succulent/cactus fertilizer at the store and it will tell you what to do

Cacti usually only get the size of a grape the first year after growing from a seed. I think they are fine!

for tiny plants like these I just use miraclegro plant food, one pump every now and then usually does the trick! you can get it at lowes, home depot, etc
