Hi Suku1233 Yes your plant is over watered. And asking for Calcium and magnesium. She's so light green. Her root system is water logged and this prevents air circulation around the roots so she is stunned her root system growth form over watering. As I always say roots are the heart off you plants. Looking that you have Calcium and Mag deficiency to. Suggestion Stop watering till soil is left with maximum off 5% moisture. To control this there is cheap moisture meters online. Write down a water schedule I personally try to water every 3 days. To me it works in 11l pod with 1.2l water and my soil stays wet for 2 and half days then low moisture levels for half a day and then watering next day. Lift the lights slightly the little plant is working to hard. That's why she looks pale. Add Cal Mag solution 2ml per litre now and then every feed 0.5ml per litre. Hope this helps and good luck growing.

Totally agree with high roller, I think you're watering more than you think. Don't go overboard at this stage, they're still developing a root system and it simply cannot handle too much water! Keep her under a dome and spray her heaves as this is her main port of nutrients at the moment!

Sorry dinafem but I'm betting on roots not getting oxygen.You mentioned hydroponics but since roots have not reached the edges of the pot yet and they are still in that turf media,you've clearly been overwatering.FloraGro and Micro at those rates will surely make healthier leaves and faster growth but problem is,you are overwatering too often for that seedling and it can't get enough O2 to its roots.that's why leaves looking very pale and new growth to be droopy.just give it some waterless time,let the soil dry out,this can take 3-5 days.dont water for 3-5 days problem will go away.giving bloom fertilizers in veg won't cause any problem,plant just wont use them,you'll be wasting the bottle that's all.

Hello my friend 👍 I think the issue is your feeding bloom feed when the plant is still in the vegative stage. With Autos regardless of the light cycle, the first 3-5 weeks is always the "vegative" stage of growth and veg feeds should be given. It does look like the plant is craving calcium, magnesium and nitrogen. These 3 are typically found in most basic feeds designed for a plant in "vegative" growth 👍 Do you have any of this type of feed available? Let's try to get you back on track my friend 🤗 All the best ✌️ Mark..
