Aloha everyone this is my very first grow and was just lookin for some feedback/advice.
These pictures were takin 1 day after the seedling broke surface. I think it may be stretching a little? Anyways thanks in advance. I'll be posting new pictures as time goes on.




 
i wouldnt worry too much about stretching this early, very cute sprout though :)
To an extent I would agree. To me the light could go in a little tiny closer but not much. It is stretching but not to the point to worry about or even have any second though for that matter.

As of right now I leave her outdoor in a somewhat shady area.
She doesn't get hit with direct sunlight. Only reason shes inside right now
is because we had a little rain
 
Not really it will be still hard to tell if it will survive. Just make sure you have high humidity. For a tip buy distilled water at a pharamacy or something. It has low ppm's which is great and a ph of roughly 5.5 (varies) which is fine for a seedling. The low ppm water makes it alot easier to grow with as a newbie. I personally wouldn't leave it outside not yet. A seedling that you makes good eating for predators.

Thanks for the feedback nomnom, I'll look into getting some distilled water.
What about purified water? Any good?
 
purified water will work but not the best idea. It has usually has a high salt levels due to water softeners. Alot of people will say stay away from it. Distilled water is basically low salt content with some chlorine in it (nothing to be concerned about.) The best water would be reversed osmosis but Idk any where that sell that in bottles. It takes the chlorines out as well. So distilled is the best readily availible option unless you want to buy a reverse osmosis machine for like 300 bucks.
