Should I be concerned?

[Theguyfrom85]

I was torn to see if I should post this here or in newbie and decided to come here.

my plant is about a week old and I am seeing some yellow toward the center of the leaves, should I be concerned or just keep on keeping on?

also, if it is to be concerning what can I do to correct?

additional info:
24 degrees C
55% RH
Lights: 300w full spectrum LED panel
Gorilla glue auto

go easy on me, it’s my first grow.

it's hard to tell with that purple light but it looks pretty healthy from what i can see

Yea sorry about that, it’s a closet with no lights besides the grow light. But you can see the yellowing in the middle. Is that normal?

I’m like a rookie/fresh meat with only googling as a resource, which is quite powerful (not to forget the fine folks on this forum). Sorry if I come off as anxious or paranoid.

You can learn a lot from the internet about growing. I love Rollitup, Autoflowernet, grow weed easy and a few others

I originally moistened the soil, 5 days in and I still haven’t watered it again because I can still feel moisture in the soil. I am going to water in another day or so.

thanks!

Be careful watering a plant that small in a pot that big. It's exceptionally easy to over water, and that can cause all manner of havoc. Don't saturate the medium until runoff at first.

This is what I have for the coming weeks.. like I said, it’s my first time so I am a bit nervous, but not scared to fail.

Thanks for the feedback. I know it’s a loaded question, should I water at half til the plant is established?

I was going to mention something along those lines, but it's kind of a sticky point. What I'd do is 8-10 ounces for the first two or three waterings. That should allow it to establish some roots. Then I'd start feeding to runoff.

A good way to tell if you're letting it dry out enough is put a second pot of equal size with dry medium next to the potted plant. When you go to check, pick both pots up. If they are relatively equivalent in weight, it's time to water.
