Royal AK Auto (First grow)

volfmanz This is my first grow so there will be some mistakes, I will be happy to hear your opinions and advices :) The difference between first and second pictures is a week, but it haven't been changing for last 3 days at all, so I am afraid that something goes wrong. Keep waiting.(Day 1) After answering to comments, I have decided to add some information for those who will read it for getting experience. I use a transparent cup with holes to keep high moisture around the seedling. I water the soil when it is dry in 2-3 cm deep, its about once in 2 days(not sure that this is good, but still), and pulverize it a bit every day to increase the whole moisture in box. Now the distance between lamp and seedling is 40 cm, but i want to put it to 20-25 cm by the end of the first weekend.(Day 2) I bought pH tester drops to test the water. Its not very accurate and I am going to buy a digital one later. PH was 7.5 so I added some сitric acid to decrease it to 6.5. Also I have decided to put the lamp down, now its 25 cm above the plant.(Day 3) Have not done any photos of last 2 days. During this time it started to grow really fast so I am happy with it. Now the seedling is 2 cm long.

volfmanz Hello! New week starts with some new problems and fears. Today I saw some white spots on the end of the leaves. I hope its not a mold, because all conditions were fine, but I suspect that I have been using transparent cup for too long and moisture were too high inside. Will be happy to hear your opinions! I am really surprised that the plant grows SO fast. Keep warring about mold, but I have decided that it is not it, because its only on the edges of the leaves. I think time will show. Also I saw some bugs inside the box and pot. The Internet gave me advice not to water the plant for 4-5 days because dry soil is not comfortable for maggots. I have done watering 2 days ago, so i think about dry period by the end of the week.

volfmanz There was not many things to tell about during this week. I have started to give a half dose of nutrients. To be honest, I am not sure in my watering system. I have watered it once in the middle of the week because it takes more then 4 days for the soil to dry. I think that I will just constantly water it once in 3 days with a small quantity of liquid. LST is coming next week😊

volfmanz New week starts with some LST. I dont have any experience with that, so it wasnt easy, but I think i have done it well. I think that the next week is going to be first flowering week! Plant looks small for a start of flowering, but I hope that it will continue to grow up. May be its just because of my small lamp and it looks the way it should be.
