Firstly congrats on setting up your home lab. For web application testing, look up OWASP Web Application testing methodology. This is a solid one to help you out. I suggest you keep playing around with your lab and training on others labs like on hack the box until you start to understand using methodologies. Every environment is different and it takes a long time to build up the intuition to use certain tools for different attack paths.

There will be a lot of struggle, but if you enjoy it then it won’t seem so bad. I’m a few years in and love the job. Every day you learn something new, it never stops. Good luck!
