Hmm, slightly small for 3 weeks, not bad at all tho a lot of people at 3 weeks are much smaller their first grow (I know mine were).
Kinda hard to tell from the pics, but as plants start getting mature they start losing their leaves from the bottom up. It looks like this is what's probably going on, losing the "non" true leaf sets as it matures.

Yeah, after second glance your plants look great for 3 weeks from seed. Its definitely just using those leaves up and letting them go. I usually tale mine off after they've lost about 75% function.

Good luck, and may you have copious amounts of highly resinous nug in your future 8)

Yeah, I mean the plant could always pull mobile elements from a leaf even if it only has 10% of its healthy tissue left. I generally take mine off when it looks like there isn't much function left, but realistically you could leaf them on (nyuck nyuck) until they fall off themselves.

With those small bottom leaves, you won't notice much of a difference either way.
