New grower for assistance

I recently germinated a seed I found, it’s been planted since the 20th of July. I have no additional tools for growing (no lights, grow tent etc.)
I was wondering if anyone could tell my why my leaves are curling? I gave it some humidity last night and thought it could be that or a problem with my watering schedule.
Last thing, I’m not sure whether it is supposed to be getting sun at this point or not, or if i’m supposed to keep it in a dark space, any insight is greatly appreciated!! B7C089B5-766B-466D-B05C-51DEA141A33C.pngE589A8D9-C355-420A-8832-921975660764.jpeg

Welcome to RIU.
A. That plant needs light BADLY! And not just any light, CFL's will do for now.
B. Your media looks like it needs lots of help, for one thing once it gets watered a half dozen times my bet is that's gonna turn into concrete. You need about 25% pearlite for drainage but that can be addressed when you up-pot after it's more stable.

My best advice is to start reading here - lots! Most any question you might have has already been answered here & the search function works well.
Good Luck.

As mentioned above, id get some perlite and repot that little guy in another container. I would also bury it up to about an inch from the leaves. Then get it under some lighting of some sort.

This will get u going for a few weeks while you sort it out. But as stated above, she needs some better soil or at least some pearlite for aeration and drainage. She has stretched and got so tall looking for light of the right spectrum. She's wanks 5k not 3k. Also the light needs to be on 16 hrs to 18 hrs a day on a normal routine so it dosent stress out or go into flower early. If light alone dosent help she wants more food too

Does you container have any drainage holes in the bottom? Also like stated try to get even a bag of some cheap potting soil that has some perlite in it. Even MG organics isn’t bad stuff. And give it light even a south facing window sill will do but best to get something close to it so it stops stretching so much
