I’m new to growing, my plant are about 2-3 weeks old. I’ve noticed light spots on the leaves and lower leaves are turning yellow and dying off.

It is normal. The plant will continue to shed its lower leaves throughout its life. ---

New growth looks healthy. As others said no need to worry about the lower yellow. I need to ask how well does your soil drain? Im getting a hint of overwater perhaps. Also are you planning on transplanting? Because you are not far off from that ---

Yes I am planning on transplanting, but I want to wait till the plant are bigger and stronger. Any advice for when to transplant them? Thanks ---

Welcome aboard!!! > [@Mer](#): > > my plant are about 2-3 weeks old As for this 👆👆👆 what kind of soil are you using? And have you introduced nutrients yet? Like others said, leaves come and go throughout the plants life. At 3ish weeks, there’s a chance they may be getting ready for feedings.
