They look fine to me. Just keep a close eye on them and if it gets worse, go from there. You can remove the affected leaf/leaves if that makes you feel better but I think they’re just fine. Relax and don’t let this stress you out, marijuana is pretty resilient stuff. All the best!

Now it should be ready, 2 weeks ago the majority of the trichs were (as far as i can see) milky. they should be amber now. Don't forget to look at the "hairs"/pistils on the bud. when the majority is brown you're good to go,

Hey buddy, what kind of soil are you using? May I suggest a few advice? First of all, your plant looks very healthy. But, in order to keep them healthy and grow well, you must do several things. FIRST. Please invest in a good PPM/PH reader. It will save your $$ in the long run. If soil, please try to keep the ph between 6.3-6.5, that's ideal. Second, your temperature is very low. Seedlings do not like that low temperature. May be you can grow it indoors for the first few weeks and when it gets strong, you can bring it out. Even then, low night temperature like that can stunt your plant very fast. Autoflowers are like ticking time bomb, you have to make sure you keep that baby healthy all the way because you only have one chance. It doesn't matter what you do, that flowering time is coming! As a grower, you have to focus on good vegetation! One main thing is, you never want autoflower roots to start circling around in a small pot. SO, the idea is to keep it in a big pot to begin with so the roots continue to expand and biggers roots = bigger goods. Remember this: during vegetation, you want NPK to be - High nitrogen, Low Phosphorous, High potassium. During flowering you want your NPK to be - Low nitrogen, High Phosphorous, High Potassium. If you remember this, you will have good growth. I also suggest you to look into some beneficial microbes and how these microbes have symbiotic relationship in the cannabis roots. First time growing anything.. It must be very exciting. But don't let the over excitement fool you and end up overnursing it! I am sorry if I've overwhelmed ya. It is exciting to see a new grower. Cheers and let me know if you have any questions.

@Medsforme, No problem! And isn’t it amazing what us, the growers including you, have to do to keep these little fragile babies to become super big? Your plant has the potential to reach over a meter or two (if grown in full sunlight). Regular cannabis plants can reach more than 3 meters high. Well right now your plant is so new that you can fix a lot of things. But let me ask you, what’s your average day time temperature and night time temperature and how long is the sunlight? For auto flowers, the longer the sunlight, the better because the light/dark day cycle doesn’t affect the budding cycle. You’ve heard of 18/6 light to dark ratio vs 12/12 light to dark ratio to start budding? Well it doesn’t apply to auto flowers. So I’d recommend you giving light as much as you can. Some people do 20/4 light to dark ratio and others do 18/6 ratio on auto flowers. More darkness will equal less buds. For soil... soil is very important. Regular garden dirt isn’t going to cut it unless you make supersoil compost (like adding worm castings, plant food and such). If you have supersoil, you don’t have to feed them with fertilizers because you e already added them into your supersoil. But if not, you have to physically add it. Many growers use Fox Farm Ocean Forest Soil. It’s easy to use and cannabis friendly. But these kind of soil only has enough basic food for the plant for about 2 weeks and then you have to add fertilizer. Now if you’re wanting 100% organic, now that’s another story. Just to throw you an example and as a guidance, I’d start with fox Farm Trio fertilizer and it comes in 3 bottles. It should be something like Micro, Grow, Bloom. Each bottle has different stages of NPK. If you read manufactures’ recommended dose, it is very high. If it tells you to give 5 ml per gallon, you want to start probably around 1-2 ml per gallon and slowly go up. This is where your PPM (parts per million) or EC (electrical conductivity) meter comes in handy. Higher these number, you can say you have more nutrients in the water. So higher the number, higher the dose concentration. Let’s say, right now your plant is vegetating and needs a lot of nitrogen and potassium. In this state, if you have too much phosphorous, your plant will go into a nutrient lock. Too much of one element will prevent your plant from absorbing others. It’s like insulin and blood sugar. Without insulin, your cells won’t be able to utilize sugar in your blood, your sugar accumulates in the blood. Same concept. I used to think that as long as I give every thing the manufacture asked for, I’ll get good results. WRONG. This is where your experiences come in from growing. It is a lot of trial and error but you have to play with the nutrient doses and see how your plant responds to it. Example: if I give too much nutrients, how do I know if the plant isn’t liking it? Well the most obvious sign would be yellow burnt tip of your plant, that’s the first symptom of nute burn. Or, if I give too much nitrogen during flowering, my plant would be dark green. — things like this, you’ll learn from experience. Right now, you should be making a lot of trial and errors for your next plant and I promise your results get better and better. I had no one to reach me how to grow but this website was my cannabis bible. Www.growweedeasy.com It’ll tell you every thing you need to know. Don’t hesitate to ask questions. We like answering 😁

@MaryJaneUSA, hey there thank you for your message .. being an absolute beginner im starting to understand there is a LOT of science behind growing.. my pop a seed put in dirt and water the plant eveey now and then is prob not gonna yield anything significant lol. The soil i used is just dirt from the garden with a little compost and some perlite. Do i just bring them inside in the night to keep them warm (I can't give them any lights or anything inside). Thanks for the NPK info.. How do i measure it and correct it ? It's is amazing seeing them grow .. they change so much every day its really interesting to see. Thanks again for your help .. anymore pointers would be really appreciated

Neem oil is horrible try a product with spinosad and it will be applied to the soil to kill any bugs in the dirt and the bugs on leaves will die also I just went through this with mine it sucked man.

The cannibal has the right solution for your problem. Take his advice on the soap or oil and it will keep those nasty bugs away.
