First set of leaves not appearing after a month!

Heya,

This is my 2nd attempt at growing, my first seedling got damaged and killed by part of my growing cupboard actually falling down on the plant :/

This seedling sprouted fine and its cotyledons are showing, but it has been a month since the cotyledons developed and there is still not a set of first leaves, in my 1st attempt at growing the leaves grew a few days after the cotyledons showed, why hasn't this seedling done the same?

The conditions for this seedling were identical to the one previous, except for that in this one there was an infestation with sow bugs which has now passed, but the root system seems fine as there i can see a root at the base of the pot.


Is there anything i can do to make the leaves grow? i know it's usually a case of time but a whole month of it appearing dormant seems wrong.

Cheers

I'd either get it closer to the light and cross my fingers... Or, cut your losses and start over. Don't waste valuable time and expensive nutes.
 
Cheers for the advice, have moved the light 2-3 inches away and if nothing changes within 3 days i'm gonna go ahead and germinate another seed and leave this one to do it's own thing and just forget about it.
