Default green grass like algae/brown stuff growing

I started my tank 1 week ago and now I have green grass like algae growing in patches. I also have some kind of brown stuff growing on what used to be white rock. Are these both normal or do I need to get rid of them?

They are both normal for a new tank going through the cycling process.

Have you started doing any water testing yet? Your test results will tell us if your cycle is near its end.
