Good job so far. Advice:

1) Transplant to a bigger pot.
2) That pot should not be see-through. Roots HATE light.
3) Stop watering so often. Watering should be more like every 3-4 days, and as enjoi said above, the soil should get dry in between waterings (so air can get to the roots).
4) Checking the pH of your water is always a good idea.
5) Are there holes in the bottom of that cup for run-off? There should be. Although you should just move to a bigger pot, and that should also have holes in the bottom.

You dont need to transplant yet. Wait till the plant gets bigger. In the meantime cover your cup with paper or something so light doesnt penetrate it.
