I got soluble palm feed to mix with water, my watering can reads 7.5lites.

My palms are in the ground in clay soil. 

How many watering cans full or liters should one apply to the palms. 

Please help as I don't want to contribute to their death.

Palms I got are chamaerops humilis and trachycarpus fortunei. 

Thanks.

It depends a lot on their size and overall health.  Are they seedlings or 7 meters?

I'd use about a 3.5 liters of Jacks palm food on mine that size watered in a circle around the palm within 45cm from trunk no more than once per week.  Preferably use a slow release granular feed later.  Check label to make sure we are talking similar palm fertilizer that is water soluble.  Fertilize no sooner than one month after planting.
