@Uk420time the biggest issues I have noticed with slow growing autos is usually either over or under watering , incorrect ph in the medium or just an unlucky dud seed your little plant looks healthy enough the leaves are "praying" to the light gods which is a great sign so I would just continue along with whatever it is your doing Best of luck mate

High, Ofcourse starting with 1 leaf slowed her down a bit at the very beginning. But I can see that her new set of leaves are ready to work. And she has a decent size for a 1 week old plant. Just make sure that she doesn't get a reason the be slowed down again during vegging and this auto will grow big and strong before going into flowering. I wouldn't worrie to much about it and start to focus on her new growth. Happy Growing! 😋

No, the number of cotyledon leaves wouldn't make any difference at all to your plant (or ANY plant) ... what makes a difference are the roots and the true leaves. If you're really giving it 1/2 gallon of water every day, you're drowning the poor root system and it can't do what it's supposed to be doing. I've got three grows going now, the youngest/shortest of which is about 45" tall and 6 weeks old... I'm giving THEM 1/2 gallon of water a day!! Overwatering is the quickest way to kill a plant so you need to cut that back to about 1 cup a day (if you need a measurement!)... and don't water every day (I don't know that you ARE but am just saying that as a precaution)... wait until the pot is super lightweight before giving it another dose of water or nutes. I would also pull up your PH to at least 6.0 as it's a bit low for a soil grow. She's actually a good height for her age, you've got good nutes going - so there's plenty of potential here... just don't drown her! She'll start drinking more as she gets older/taller. Good luck!

Yes, but not much. You'll probably have to feed it sooner than later, since the cotyledons hold nutrients for the plant's first week or two of life. Missing one means it doesn't have the normal amount of nutrients that most pot plants usually have. I hope this helps.
