Looks good. Some grow faster than others. A bit hungry.

Normal?? Average?? A seedling is the size it is...Kind of like an infant weighs what it weighs. The point to be concerned about is their health.
It looks fine...you may want to take a look here though:

And BTW...
Welcome to RIU, and the wonderful world of cultivating the world's most misunderstood and feared medicines!!!
The only 'advice' I can give you or anyone is to read and learn and then apply what you have read and learned to your garden and you cannot fail. Anyways, remember the search tool is your friend...Lots of folks here willing to help a new farmer get up and growing. But at the end of the day your grow will be only as good as the knowledge and work you put into it.
It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly. Do your own research, you will be much happier knowing you have done it for yourself and by yourself. The first buzz you get from your own budz...is by far the BEST high you will ever have!
Do a search using your current question as the keyword(s) and ZOOOM!! Like Wonka's Great Glass Elevator…off you go to tons of threads answering all your questions. Read all the Newbie Central stickies and learn…
After that you are a seasoned vet. Because to soak up all that information and sift through it, is going to take time. You will likely finish your first grow by then. Viola! grow complete and education well under way.
It might be magnesium deficiency, but I know it's not nutrient Burn because it was like that before I added nutes.

There's no "average size", too strain dependant and then variables like strong vs. weaker seedlings. Looks ok for 3 weeks, you'll do better to let them get bigger in each container, then up-pot them to slightly larger container (e.g. cup ->1gal ->3gal), do that a couple of times. Putting them straight form seed into a large container or up-potting from a party cup to a large container will slow them down if anything. You want the roots to get constrained in their container before up-potting them, break up the soil a bit on transplant, they'll take off faster after a couple of days settling into their new container.

It's clawing a little bit, so maybe a bit too much nitrogen, but the yellow with crumbly edges makes me think you also either have a legit phosphorus deficiency, overwatering, or even a Mag def if those veins stay green. Mag and phosphorus deficiency together would indicate probable overwatering.
Sadly not that, I just started feeding it. The pic was before adding anything but water.

Your soil may just be hot. The middle's a really dark green, and the claws also say slight nitrogen tox.
It's ecoscraps soil, I've heard it works well for growing cannabis. I've never heard anything about it being too hot :/

What's the NPK? And, it could also be potassium deficiency, which also could be overwatering. How much do you water it?
2-2-2. I'm going to spray some Epsom salt on it to help with the mag def.

Don't ! there is no def ! there is a bit of burn, new growth looks fine, don't feed nutes till the soil is more spent, you'll be fine

I think the issue is seriously stemming from overwatering. That isn't just mag. That is either P or K def as well. Which makes me think overwatering.

Yeah, it's kinda drooping so I know it's over watered, I only water it when it's crusty dry. But with the soil it keeps moisture in so it's harder to get it all the way to the Bottom of the pot.
