its so small that trying to fix it could hurt it more. its ususally good to use mix without any nutes but the natural nutes already present in the soil.. its easier to control the soil and whats in it. i'd maybe repot to organic soil or try flushing all the mix and crap in it out of it but that could drown the roots check your avg garden soil bag.. see what ratio the soil is

yer the pale streaks are gone now, was the slightest bit too close to the light, so thats fixed. so yous think it could be the soil? yer i water like twice a day, maybe even an extra squirt if it needs it, also is there a reason for it growing so slow? haha

First friggen of all relax! Ok, take a little epson salt and I mean a tiny little pinch and put it into your water. You are mag def. No big deal at all.

Let the soil dry a bit and a transfer at this point really wouldn't help. There is nowhere near the amount of root grow at this point to justify that.. And let me reiterate. A pinch of epson salt per a gallon of water.....

let it dry right out so the pot is light when u lift, fluff up the soil around the plant with a tooth pik to fluff up first 1/4 inch of soil .. needs more light
