First time grower, I’ve got a problem at least I think I do? Well anywho my seedlings have gained their true leafs, But they don’t seem to be moving as fast as I seen and expected I’ve used the right soil. Can someone explain any possible reasons why??!?

You would need to give more info if someone going to try to help bud. Got to give details of the grow. Can't just say right soil either lol. So many things could effect your results

Dont compare your first experience to what others have, focus on what a plant needs, not what you think it wants...or what you need to do, most of the time, just leave em alone and they will grow as long as they have whats needed. ;)

Lol truu well they’ve been in this mode for about to 2 weeks. I’ve pH my water to the appropriate level (5.5). I started them outdoors (first week). Then brought them in for proper light. The wattage is only 150 simple light rn. Until veggie stage (I thought). I haven’t started any nutrition other than a few banana peels n the compost. I even went as far as boiling my water before watering. I water (The dirt) 2 times max a week, am I not watering enough? Or maybe I just have to be patient?, I hope that helped a little more !

Along with listening to @Renfro , @Thundercat, and some others. Be careful who you listen to on here though.
When asking for critical advise you should definitely wait a minute, don't just jump on the first reply to an inquiry. See what others have to say and try to get input from someone that has some experience with what you're trying to do. When there are multiple points of view you should take extra care because generally speaking everyone isn't right lol and if you start shotgunning solutions you will often cause more harm than good.

Just because you don't see growth up top doesn't mean the plant isn't growing roots, getting its feet under it. It prioritizes this while it's working off of the seeds food store. This way it has a better chance of getting the nutrients it requires after the seed reserves become exhausted.

Yeah I’m hoping that’s the case because they’re still standing firm and strong

I 100% agree from what I’m reading it’s mote of a trial an error type of process (and I’ve been taking notes every day). I can’t throw all my chips in one bag you’re right, but I will learn a little more patience and keep strong confidence.
