Hello, my 2 weeks old plant

Terroza · Jan 18, 2017

so this plant is about 2 weeks old does it look okay or am I doing something wrong?, I know the leaves go to right/ left but thats because light comes that way, i turn the plant so that it goes straight and repeat.

it appears to be stretching for the light you need to bring the light closer

Tupapa · Jan 18, 2017

Also replant those stretchy stems., You can bury the stem all the way to the cotyledon leaves

Terroza · Jan 18, 2017

Apart from The stretched part (I Will put light closer and replant) Will the plant make it?

I'm not sure what's effecting it's slow growth because you didn't provide any additional information, but here's a comparison for you. 2 weeks old.

yeah it can't be two weeks old, surely? this is a pic at 10 days old "from sprouting" for comparison

Tupapa · Jan 18, 2017

It looks a little under develop but it will make it. Don't overwater and check your ph. Gl

Looks like your soil doesn't have good drainage, plus to big of a pot., I start them in party cups

Terroza · Jan 18, 2017

Would you recommend me putting the plant into a smaller pot or just put it back into the same one? Also do I have to get different soil? (Dont really have the money for it)

Tupapa · Jan 18, 2017

You never said what soil is that., I will mix a batch with perlite and transplant., Get any cheap potting soil and mix it with perlite., Have u checked the ph?

Terroza · Jan 18, 2017

Will check the PH when I get home, what about the replanting? Same pot or smaller one?

I will go with party cups, or u can use the same and water just around the stem

Terroza · Jan 18, 2017

Just put the light closer and replanted the plant. The soil is PH 5.2-6.2 is that okay?

Sadly enough could not find such information, I can however provide a link of the soil(It is a Dutch site so I hope it will be in English for you)
