I was wrong about the days, lol, it's only been 3 weeks, maybe a few days left depending on which batch of seeds it came from. I think it's doing okay! Just had to trim those leaves. But I looked at it and was like "That doesn't look like 28 days", I checked, and it was only 3 weeks lol.

I think that it was a light issue that caused all my problems. I kept it about 1/2" away from the light up through the development of the set of 3 leaves. The 3, and original singles, curled down, and the tips got brown. I read because the heat of the light made it evaporate faster than it's new tiny roots can get water.

I moved the light back, the set of 3 filled out a little, but stayed curled. The singles got reddish brown, and got progressively worse. I cut just in case, knowing it was risky. The new ones, the first set of 5 that is appearing, seems fine. It was perky, then I watered it, so it got a little droopier. I don't know if the color is reproducing well, it's not as light green as the pics.

Also, the light so close made it short too, I think. It isn't rootbound.

It spent it's first 3 days in Miracle Grow (for Orchids, which has relatively low nutes), then went to scotts top soil, and last week I added a little sweet grape botanicare now and then.

I think it is salvageable, but I can see it being shocked into being a male by now

lol yep! But even with the overwatering, I think it was the light issue. Too hot, too close.

it wont go all the way male but dude its pale cause the clorophyll is getting destroyed by the light being so close its called light bleaching probally another reason why its short you need clorophyll to have photosynthesis it will be fine just keep it 3 inches away for awhile or do 10/14 for a couple days
