1st grow (need help)

[TriggaTre0053]

• How's it going guys, I'm new to the website as a member. And I'm also a newbie with growing so don't bash me too hard lol but I'm in need of some help really fast.
• I planted my germinated seed almost a week and a half ago. It got it's cotyledons and first set of leaves. About three or four days ago it started to develop it's second set of "true leaves" since I noticed them coming in the plant all around stopped developing it's been 3/4 days and the second set of leaves still look very small and the seedling hasn't done much more like the whole thing just froze. It's still green as it should be and LOOKS healthy. Is there any common issue as to why this happens? Am I maybe expecting faster grow rates? Or what?
• Picture below

All comments welcome, Thanks in advance

From my experience, and research because i have had similiar questions, a plant spends its first couple of weeks developing underground root system to support the plant when it does start growing up right. Liios like your plant is looking good. It should catch on in a week or so. Once its as tall and wide as your container transplant it.

I would say give it a week to show progress. Make sure your using soil that Is around 6-7 ph for soil or 5-6 ph for coco. That is KEY to making sure your plant grows in a stable environment. Without the right ph the plant can't grow as efficiently

That's also what I have problem with is there's no shop around me to buy pH pen from so I'm waiting on one to be delivered from Amazon but it's not due for delivery until Tuesday morning. Thanks for the replies I'll update pictures in a week, I was just really getting worried

Have you tried home depot. That's where mine is from. Or Lowe's. Or any garden store. It doesn't have to be digital

I called home Depot and they said they didn't carry them I haven't tried Lowe's I just figured id get it off Amazon. I'll try Lowe's to have an extra one if they have one

I grew in coco at neutral ph before well vegged without issues .But I understand your view thats what everyone suggest
