You will be dosing ammonia daily (eventually... whenever ammonia drops to zero), but the nitrite won't drop to zero for a while yet. Regardless you dose a bit (1ppm) of ammonia to give those bacteria something to survive on while you wait for the nitrite to also hit zero.
What dose did 5mL give you? If that was for 3ppm, you'll want to add about 1.5ml (just above actually at 1.67mL) to get ~1ppm. The exact measurement doesn't really matter that much so don't sweat it too much.
Cycling process in a nut shell:
Day 1: Dose ammonia to 3ppm. Wait and test - wait and test...
Day 4-7: Ammonia has reached zero, and nitrite is starting to rise. Dose ammonia to 2 or 3ppm. Wait some more and test some more...
Day 6-9: Ammonia has dropped again to zero. Nitrite is starting to jump off the chart. Add ammonia to 2-3ppm.
Day 10-14: Ammonia drops to zero in 24 hours. Nitrite is probably off the chart. (Crossroads - either a huge water change to reset the nitrite to zero, or sit and wait it out. I suggest a water change here - good practice anyway). Either way, you dose ammonia to 1ppm - wait and test.
Day 11 - 15: Ammonia keeps dropping to zero, but the nitrite keeps bumping up higher and higher. Add ammonia at 1ppm daily. (Keep an eye on the pH - it may start to fall.)
Day 15-21: Ammonia keeps falling, nitrite starts to drop back lower. Keep dosing at 1ppm ammonia and testing daily - start testing at 12 hours.
Day 18-28: Ammonia falls to zero in 12 hours, nitrite falls to zero after 24 hours, but still isn't zero at 12.
Day 28-42: Both ammonia and nitrite reach zero in 12 hours... Dose again daily for a week, to verify that this continues for the full week.
Day 35-49: Assuming no changes, add fish
after a massive water change (100%) to reset the tank to tap conditions. The bacteria will be just fine.
