INSTAGRAM 0-100K

This is my journey, my goal is to make an authority instagram account in my niche i will be using follow unfollow method manually . I made my account yesterday since then i posted 6 pictures that i scrape from big accounts and give them credit.

Followers : 40
Followings: 700
Posts: 6

I expect to get more followers because i recently followed all those people.
i got a question though because this is my first instagram manual journey. What is the safe follow number per hour for a new IG account ? because i had my follow option blocked for an hour because i was following too much i think. I was 150 every hour now i do 50 every hour so i am not sure what is safe because i do not want to get banned. Sorry for english mistakes by the way
also i post 5 times a day you think its too much ?

I created a new account2 weeks ago i believe i follow 300-400 a day, i also verify it with my number

oh thanks i will try verify it with one of those 1euro telephone numbers you can get in stores today
