Hi Salko, could we have a picture if possible please? Are all the leaves turning yellow or more a pale green?

I wouldn't feed them with that. Not suitable for that type of plant, and not necessary if they're just planted.
They're probably suffering from too much heat/sun, and/or drying wind. They don't like that very much, although they cope with it better if in the ground. Much harder when in pots.

Were they thoroughly wet when you planted them? If not, any water you put in will tend to run through, and not dampen the root ball. The recent spell has made it difficult for lots of plants to thrive, especially when newly planted.
A pic will help though.
