I think its a good start.
Judging by the cinder block wall behind it (size) and the amont of vegitation (nodes) on it its fine.
It does look a bit wilted but that may be from overwatering (drowning) it also.
At least its not stretched.

looks like you are having a watering problem. you want to water when the soil is dry down a few inches, and then water enough for excess to be flowing out the bottom. repeat when dry again, usually every 2-4 days

It's been that size for about two weeks,it'sbeen under a 600MH conversion bulb and I had been watering every other day so I may be drowning them?

I put it over the bathtub drain and use a gallon bottle of distilled water mixed with nutes and I water till I hear the water draining in the tub.

test the soil with your finger before you water. it should be dry down to the second knuckle

OK I wont bother it for a couple of days and use the second knuckle test from now on,I'm experimenting with the bagseed before I put out a nice piece of money on some decent seeds so I can get the feel of what to do and what not to do its my first try so I know I will have plenty of ?'s and I appreciate the input from everyone.

if you're using fox farms, like me, that stuff is packed full of nutes already. If you do use nutes with fox farms, go with something low powered, like biobizz.

Stay off the nutes until it gets a bit larger. Also as most have said it looks over watered, and I don't think you need a gallon of water for that little guy try 1/3 that amount. But check the soil first before watering.

i had the same problem about 2 weeks in and that looks like overwatering to me IMHO. just to double check, since you got a huge pot, shove your finger into the dirt down to your knuckle just to be sure, and if its still soggy, let it sit for 2 days or so n recheck it. if its dry you will know cuz your plants will look alot more perky all of the sudden. After that, start watering like once every 3 days - water one day - wait one- wait one- water again.
