Does this plant look normal? (first grow)

-Plant is an autoflower(cheese) 32 days from sprout and started showing its first pistils today
-Soil is entirely fox farm ocean forest
-I don't have an accurate way to measure PH in the soil but i only use ph balanced distilled water at about 5.9 PH
-i fed the plant once using cold war organics bud bread and along with cal-mag once when it began its first true leaves, the rest i have sprayed the leaves with diluted soluble seaweed extract once a week and once watered into the soil, i have also used hydroguard two times during watering
-its in a 2x2 mars hydro grow tent with a TS1000 grow light about 24 inches from the canopy set at about 75% power on a 20/4 light schedule
-humidity has been 50% and temperature hovers between 70°-78° f
-inline exhaust fan is always on at a setting of 4

The leaves appear slightly wrinkled and a little bit of twisting, almost looks "puffy" compared to my other plant, and i haven't found any information to what could cause this. The two newest leaves are skinnier than its older leaves and looks more yellow than i normally saw with new growth on my other plant although the outer parts look somewhat green. If there is any suggestions about what i can do to correct these problems i would appreciate it. I'm not sure if the new pistil growth is causing it to pull more nutrients from the top area would you suggest more nutrients? I'm also not familiar with cal-mag but from what I've read to only use it during signs of a deficiency?

I think it's fine. Make sure you water when they are thirsty which is perfect right now. I pick the pots up and see if they seem super light or still heavy from internal moisture. They look thirsty is all. You might want to start a feeding schedule and feed them normal grow and pick up the (N) a little more to keep the yellowing from occurring. This is likely due to the fact the roots will hit the bottom of your pot and start becoming restricted. They will start to starve and require more nutes to keep them happy. I would transplant within a week to a minimum of 5 gallons and start feeding them heavy grow formula an then transition into bloom and them full bloom formula within the 5th week. You always want to feed plants with what they need to flower massive buds and that requires a lot of juice. Follow directions and never over juice them. Once you over fert in dirt you will cause major issues and flushing and hoping the pots dry out is a nightmare and a waste of time. Just keep it simple and the less chemicals you use the better. I see people with all kinds of chemistry going on and I have 3 parts with 2 bloom boosters and I follow basic instructions. You don't want to waste a lot of money for the same results. I would invest in more powerful lights and or CO2.
