I just started off with just a basic commercial organic potting mix. I have it under 4 54 watt t5 panel light. Ive been watering every other day and misting in between to keep the soil moist. I watered it a little bit now instead of waiting until tomorrow and it seems like she is doing okay for now. Is there anything I should be looking out for going forward? As soon as I figure out how to post pictures on here I will..I mostly write from my ipad and seems like you have to post pictures from the computer..or maybe I'm wrong.

You don't need to water it that much when it's so small.
I still stand by that it's probably lanky due to over watering.

Yeah looks a bit overwatered, but it should recover fine just let the top 1-2 inches of soil dry completely bewteen waterings.

This is a picture of the seedling I am trying to save as I overwatered. I did not water it yesterday. It is on the 6th day and appears to be trying to hang in there. does it look like it needs water or should i wait more time? What do you think?:leaf:
