Are these too small?

They're 2 weeks old, autoflower northern lights, grown in Mother Earth groundswell, under 600w LED.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Not terrible. I had worse starters but autos makes things complicated. If you have a root booster you can give it a go.

I am boosterless lol. Any recommendations?
I don’t use much. Normally, rich amended mixes provide these kind of things. You know, humic acid, aminos and enzymes. If doing organic, i used to use biobizz before switching to homemade.
By the way they look healthy to me, i wouldn’t worry much. Thats the important part. You don’t want to overdose them in anyway.
If you like, a very dilute alfalfa fpe with a bit of stinging nettle fpe and kelp extract (use biobizz for that one still) is more than enough to keep it super healthy and happy at this stage. You can use kelp alone if you don’t have the others.
But really whatever you go with doses should be a fraction of what is recommended applied as a foliar. Just a little nudge.
And root boosters should be applied as a drench.

Also, not sure if it makes a difference, but they're actually 12 days in. So not exactly 2 weeks yet.
I'd say bring the light closer more like 10 inches stick your hand at the top of the plant and see if the light is hot on your hand from that distance if it is bring it up a bit as your plants get bigger raise the light

I'll do that asap. I'm literally looking at new lights now. Thanks for the advice everyone. I'll let you know the results.

Unfortunately I'm too new to the site be able to post links (apparently). But it's the Phlizon newest 600w LED (per Amazon).
Aha I found it and damn man they are fucking liars I circled the actual wattage In the pic below which is 108 watts!! They hide it deep in the information

My 600 led's are each rated 250w at the wall. Mars Hydro.
Depending which tent they're in I use 1, 2, or 3 of them.
I'm using HID in 1 tent now, but love the super tight node spacing from my led's.
Try keeping your light at 12" and watch for calcium issues with led.
