Hey riu

So my seedlings are only a coupledays old and yet when i view the 1st fan leaves on them (1st after cotyls) i see a pattern of white dots. They look like trichs when they 1st start but i am obv not even into veg stage yet. There is nothing on under side of leaves only the top side. I cant find a single bug on em. Is it possible for them to grow crystals from day 1 basically?

a small plant might go into flowering after a week or 2 with 12 hrs or less of light per day but it would have to be healthy with a few good leaves and a few side branches probably. I wonder about the light period you use. If there is something out of balance with a seedling it might be too late. Do what you can, in a week or 2 it will be better or maybe start over if it dies change the conditions.

I am on 24 hrs light until 1st true leaves (5+ fingers) so no way its flowering it only broke ground saturday.
 
It could be mites. I started seeing dots on my plants before I was able to see the mites. That seems like a pretty short amount of time for them to move in. It may also be a problem with the soil or light depending on what was in the soil or how close your lights are. you may want to find something to use just as a preventative for bugs in case it is. I have never used anything on my plants that young though so i do not know how it would affect it
