Slow Growing Seedling

Here's my six day old Bubba Kush seedling and it's not looking very healthy. It's growing slowly and now the leaves are drooping (I'm assuming there's too much water?). The plants are in an open closet and they don't have any humidity control, do I have to build something to regulate the humidity or can the plants grow fine without it? I have a fan, 4 CFL bulbs, with the temp ranging from 72 to 78. Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks

Here's the Bubba Kush next to a Critical 47. They're in MiracleGrow moisture control potting soil

Give it a couple of days and they'll bounce back.
dont be anxious about watering be conscious. Let it dry a little and let the roots grow in search of water.
the plants are fine though
Hope this helps!

The leaves on the Bubba Kush are a little yellow now, I'm letting it dry out. Do I need to make a humidity dome or something? I really want this plant to Survive!!

BUBBA KUSH HATES MOISTURE! it is NOT going to grow properly in that soil. i have experience with that exact soil... it sucks bad. it will mold out good heavy nugs if u dont watch it. u really need to find better soil like Roots organics, or Fox Farm. they are both reasonably easy to find nowadays, even in places w/o legal bud. you also should add plenty of perlite for drainage. im talking at least 50% with a soil like MG MC.

ive grown the GHS bubba out and im currently growing the pre98. there is a big difference there as well. pre98 can be hard to grow IMO. it wont grow in that moisture control soil, but neither are gonna like it. u could get away with that soil with other strains but not bubba.
