How to fertilize Atlas Cedar

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Atlas Cedar after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Does anyone know what kind of plant this is? I got this plant awhile ago back in December but I had no clue on what kind of plant it was. Back then then needles were soft and not crumbly like they are now. The color was also a bit more vibrant when I first got it. I didn’t know how to take care so that is why it died. I tried other plant apps but they we’re giving results that didn’t make since. I tried my best but I couldn’t figure it out. Does anyone have a clue?
