Hey, looks fine. Dont water on the leaves tho. new growth is always a bit lighter, its weaker than the rest of the plant and cant deal with the light. Just means they were growing in good paste the last days And water more, if the soil looks like a dog peed on it its wrong, the whole soil should have the same level of wetness, water less frequently but more. I never water less than a liter, i just change the intervall, till im at 3 days, then i start highering the wateramount. Another thing to training indicas. They very bushy i would always cut the leaves growing inwards(pointing to the mainbranch), they take the light from the lower branches and after all dont have space anyway. you can leave them on higher branches when they got more space but right now, it stresses the plant more than a trim would do. Atleast thats my personal experience, indicas that grow like that into themselves stop themselves from growing or atleast they stagnate to a point that their neighbours will outgrow them and dominate the space compeltly.

It looks like you have S(ulfur) and maybe a little Fe deficiency

Looks fine to me might need a little more nitrogen but it's probably just growing fast and has not filled in the color yet

Hi, Your seedling's yellow leaves could be from nutrient deficiency (use seedling fertilizer), overwatering (check soil moisture), insufficient light (adjust distance), pH imbalance (check and adjust), or pests/diseases (inspect). To address slow growth, water only when the top inch of soil is dry, ensure proper light, optimize pH (6.0-6.5), and monitor for issues. Use a quality seed starting mix and maintain 70-75°F (21-24°C) with 60-70% humidity for optimal growth. Merry Christmas buddy.
