1, watering - most people agree its best to give it a proper water (until water does come out the bottem), it stops deposits building up in the soil
2, Try not to over water which is easily done in your forst grow, it says everywhere it is best to let the top dry out before watering. I can only say that i water mine once the top is dry, if i stick my finger in about an inch the soil is slightly damp, but not wet. Overwatering is when the soil is continually wet through and starves the roots of oxygen, if they are getting a bit of air, then they are fine
3, you dont want to start feeding til they are more developed, when they get 4 or 5 nodes (little braches coming off the main stem) is about right, but start light, 1/4 of recomended dosage to prevent any nute burn, then work your way up, remember not to overfeed, most people told me best off is just to feed every other water. While they are vegging anything with a higher Nitrogen is recomended, but i used a 1-1-1 and mine was absolutely fine
And i wouldn't worry about the pale stem, at this stage if it has healthy leaves and isn't stretching to the point it cant support its own weight then everything should be ok, The colour and state of the leaves is usually the best indicator of the ladies health.
Like i said im no expert, best thing to do is just to read the threads already on here, you can gaurantee someone has already asked the question you have.

be nice to see how you get on. I was interested in doing a window sill plant for the hell of it. Im a UK grower too 
A few days ago it just rained ALL DAY so i decided to give her a bit more light from a 13W CFL... Put her inside a little box with the light inside, One of the leaves ended up touching the bulb and it caused a burn mark on my leaf! Proper gutted about coz later on youl see if she didnt have the mark she'd be looking good!
