Wrote this couple weeks ago, posting now:
Alright, middle of week 2, the girls are doing really well, showing good growth, I am impressed by how quick they are growing (well except for the fastberry which managed to grow some defromed leaves, overwatering I think).
I noticed that some of the leaves were wrinkly and thought it might be too much light so I moved the lights up as much as possible in my roof tent. To do that, I've moved the air filter out so it clears the smell while the air is pushed out instead of when it is pulled in inside the tent. The light now can go to max 120cms (giving it ~25 cms of air above), the suction is right above the light and there is a fan next to the light pushing the air downwards for warmth. Although it doesn't seem the problem was the lights but rather overwatering. Keeping the lights high up as they are too strong for these little ones
The Bubble Kush Auto has really impressed me, it caught up with siblings that are 4 days older! I will definitely be growing some more RQS seeds, I was already decided on doing that because I always seem to end up on their blog posts when looking for stuff, but seeing how well this plant is doing so far made me want to try them more.
I discovered biotabs and decided I am going to follow the biotabs 'just add water' method. Decided a bit late into the grow as I was supposed to add the mycotrex when potting but I ordered anyway and received today.
I dug up the soil around the plants about 15cms deep and mixed 5 teaspoons of mycotrex per pot, trying to be careful not cut some roots or kill a plant again while messing about all went well, pictures takes on day 10 after the operation. Soil is still a bit wet, will soak with bactrex when it dries a little.

End of week 2 update:
most are 14 days from seed today.
I added bactrex on day 11, the day after adding the mycotrex.
On day 12 I noticed the sugar mama isn't growing at all, using up space and my preferred pot so I decided to put her out of her misery and transplant the fastberry to that pot. And then there were 5.
Day 13 noticed that the soil takes really long to dry which is when I realised I have been ignoring the saucers. They were full of water as I'm used to outdoor without gardening. Luckily noticed before it was too late.
