Lemon Haze Auto - First Grow

I accidentally somehow made a small rip in plant 2 after the picture but I think it will be fine. It was on the larger bottom leaves. My Bio Bizz nutrients are arriving tomorrow so I can soon introduce those to the plants as directed. 7/28 - Gave then a first through feeding will little runoff. Using Bio Bizz nutrients. I actually went a little under the recommended feeding schedule to avoid burning them. Since I’m a noob and this is my first grow I’m just trying to see how they are reacting to this without going overboard. I also waited until the pots were very light to water since I am paranoid about overwatering. I check them hourly. I do have another photoperiod plant in there not documented here, it was showing a bottom slight yellowish leaf so seemed it was time to introduce the feeding schedule. I should prob LST but honesty I am a bit intimidated the first grow I just want these to make it though 7/30 - Raised the light a bit. Seemed a bit close saw some possible light bleaching on the lower leaves. It was about time anyway since they are taller now. 7/31 - Confirmed I have some Thrips, you can see the damage on the bottom leaves on Plant 1 and I've seen 3 of them. It's been recommended I can use Neem Oil or Dr. Bonners Soap to fix the issue. I'm going the soap route. It's advised 3/4 water 1/4 soap for the solution in case anyone is curious. Plants don't need feeding for at least another day or 2 more the pots still have some weight to them.
