First Grow - White Queen; Seedling Leaves Cupping Up

So, one more question TopDogTHC....my soil is still very moist from the last watering; should I let it completely dry before I use the cling film method?

Doesn't look like you need to cling film it tbh. Just focus on the new growth. Ye let it dry. It doesn't want to be like dust. You can go off the feel of the pot. When it's holding water it almost has a bounce to it when you lift it. Is it raised off the saucer/floor?

No it's directly on top of the saucer
 
OK Guys, so with all of your help what I am going to do is TRY raise the ambient temp in the tent to 75-80 while keeping the humidity around 60% (In my situation, maintaining a nice, constant temperature and a humidity % has been very tricky so far) (Does 60% humidity sound good?) I have raised my pot up about 4" to hopefully air that soil out better. Once the soil dries I will water a good deal less and with more cognizance, as what we have established the likely culprit is over-watering. I have consulted PlatinumLED and they said I had the lights hanging WAY too low, and that is also a very likely culprit; so in response to that, I have raised my LED's a considerable height. Also, I have in my possession a CO2 regulator and a meter/timer and am considering adding CO2 into the equation; is this overzealous at this time? I will update with pictures in a few days. I would like to thank everyone who has helped me so far, and want to thank anyone who may read this thread and help in the future. I'm already feeling the community love here, thanks guys!

Hey guys,

Here's an update without pictures. So, if you look at the leaves that I noted were burnt to shit, you can actually notice that they aren't burnt at all where they are receiving shade. I think I royally fucked up with my lights; I completely underestimated how powerful they were (phrasing). I raised them even higher. Will update with pictures soon; thanks again!

Hell yes! I love meeting people who watch it; so hilarious. Hopefully my plant isn't in the "Daaaanger Zoooneee"

OK so, heres my update so far:

I've been following your guy's directions to a 'T' (Thanks again!!). I raised the ambient temperature to 80 degrees, increased the humidity to 60%, raised the lights SIGNIFICANTLY higher, and haven't watered since this past Friday...I would say the new growth is an improvement, but the leaves are still cupping. I'm no expert, so what do you think? Also, I've noticed shoots developing from the nodes...is this normal? Thanks again for all your help, you guys are the best.

OK guys, update here. She's growing like....uhm...she's growing like....damnit I had something for this. Anyway, she's growing like crazy and I'm happy about that! Old growth still has curls but new growth doesn't, at all...which, yay? My seed distributor said during all phases of growth to have the humidity as low as possible; so today I lowered the humidity to about 40%; today I also added CO2 to the mix....Im so pumped to wake up tomorrow and see new growth! Every day is like Christmas; I love this hobby! Again, thanks to anyone who has helped me, and anyone who may help me in the future: Thank you. Community love.

BTW....Will update with pictures in a few days!
