Could be your soil, you need a good soil that drains good like Roots organic 707 Fox farm, Orinoco but that you have to add perlite or rocks so it drains. The nutrients in it could be killing the plant. I would get more lights two you definitely need way more light for flowering. Soil more light and start over. But you can try getting different soil and transplant and get more lights and see if it helps. Good luck

It's not that bad I've grown in mg I added little rocks and mixed it so it would be airy. The plants grew great I just harvested them with soil like that you have to add little bit of stuff to it like moss petite shit like that. But I would try to get more lights . They might be fine just wait it out water once every 4 or 5 days and pick the pot up so you know what it feels like watered. You won't need nutrients for four to six weeks using mg it has enough to last until then. When you add nutrients water then nutes in that rotation every week unless your plants show signs of needing them. Only use 1/4 strength and gradually go up to recommended dose on your feeding chart. Here's some pointers you need to know in the beginning Hope it helps. Good luck

Their just seedlings, the seedling stage is the slowest of them all, your plan has to develop roots below before you will start to see leaves grow, be patient she will be sprouting leaves properly in a wee or two. Just make sure you dont give any extra nutes right now
