babies just need water, no nutes at all. You dont start feeding them that stuff until like 4th 5th week. water every 3-4 days until you see run off. also keep ph around 6.4 6.5

I dont water till drain off with seedlings 8v always felt less is more. Theres not enough roots to absorb the water so it goes stale and the oxygen in the water dissipates away leaving a soggy oxygen lacking soil. You want the plant to be hungry for water, spreading and growing roots in search of water. Give it too much it wont feel the need as much to go looking get what i mean bro?

So just dribble a bit in every now and again you think

Greetings. Looks like it is seeking light a little bit. Flip the leafs over look for critters. Work on the root zone and not the plant.

Just give it a couple hundred millilitre and give it a few days till the pots light again. Keep her hungry for water but dont starve it of water. You making sure your water is room temp too? Dont use real cold water from the tap it may shock the roots and lower soil temps

i'm a rookie and admittedly have not read the thread.
that said... sure stretched on ya' didn't it? if it were mine, i would re-pot it, burying it all the way up to those little starter leaves. then, whatever light you are using, i would get it down closer. water with a light, say 25% strength feeding of your preferred base nutes, wait 1 day (wanna let it dry out a bit), plain water, wait 1 day, feed, like that...

That's just what i would do.
Good luck bro!
Harvey

*edit* on second thought, being that young i would not give it any nutes yet, the new soil will contain plenty, but still skip a day between waterings.
