hi so i have a little plant that's 11 days old it was just a seed i found in some bud. I made a little grow box out of a mini fridge right now i have one 2700k 23 w cfl and a 6500 k 23 w cfl while its growing for after i have 3 2700k 23 w 3 6500k 23w and one 43 w 6500 k just waiting on the plant to grow a bit before i got it all the lumens. Its sitting in pro mix sprouting soil that has some food in it apparently. 3 days ago some white dust on the leaves appeared that i tried to research and came up with the idea that it is PM. but since im no expert wanna ask you guys what it could be and how to treat it

It doesn't really look lIke pm to me.

PM will wipe off with with a damp paper towel. Trichs will stay on the leaf. Maybe try that on a small part?

Veg trics. Seen it a thousand times. Usually a lot more on newer leaves.
Leaves are twisting and curling and drooping a bit. How hot are your temps? How closer are your lights?

my guess was that it was too bright and that's why leaves are curling ? if not ill move it closer

Small oscillating fan would help beef her up and dry the soil quicker. as turbo said, bring those bedroom lamps closer like 3"-6". The plant looks great, a bit over watered though, just water less for now. Don't veg too long if you dont have enough lights.

would 3 6500k 23w 1 6500k 43w and 2 2700k 23 w be good for it already or is it too much it would be about 8-9 k lumens i just thought it needs less while its so small. thanks for the help btw
