Definitely a slow start but that doesn’t mean it can’t get better, sometimes it like a freight train starting slowly but then building speed.

Soil looks dry (but obviously just a photo so can't really tell) and it's stretching a bit, so move the light a bit closer. Seedlings work on roots first then take off. Just be patient.

So only 5 or 6 days from coming through the soil? Looks fine for that time frame...some are a little bigger, some are not.

What kind of light are you using and how far away is it?

Agree she looks happy. As stated soil looks dry. I know you want to be careful not to overwater but shell take more. Moving light closer will limit stretch. I usually start in tiny pots then when they reach i uppot and bury the stem most the way. But shes doing underground work. She will jump when shes ready. I dont see anything saying your soil is off or shes upset. Water and let grow.

If you've planted her in her final pot she will take a bit longer..the roots are still growing and exploring, you'll get faster growth if you start her something like a solo cup then transplant..

Depends on strain though too, partially. I have two random seeds I started in solo cups that popped 8 days ahead of a jelly breath I started in a 1 gal fabric pot. The seedling is just as tall as the other two but obviously lacks the leaf development with only 2 sets right now, but this seedling has taken off!

Yeah i believe shes doing that underground work and op is going to be suprised when she decides to show it above ground. Shell take off.

Honestly you need more humidity it takes four days from seed to this point.

I cut some water bottle and spray some water in it to add humidity. i don't really know is it working or not but I will save some money for the humidifier later on thank you for suggestion
