It may be you light intensity is too low but she is still small, give her some more time and see how she goes

What i do with her?
Ola growmies. O que fazer com esta Royal Gorilla? Teve um inicio de vida lento em relação às outras, as primeiras duas folhas ficaram coladas durante algum tempo. Pensei que com o tempo ela ia desenvolver-se normalmente mas tem 34 dias e tem este aspeto com alguns pelos a nascer.

Seedling stem bending
Any ideas as to why the stem is bending like this? Day 8, 2.75 inches tall, 33% humidity, 77f temp. The seedling did originally stretch but seems to have stopped in the last couple of days and focusing on growing leafs. Thanks in advance

Over watering? Will she recover?
When I lifted this GSC auto from the tent to LST she simply fell over. Prior to that I thought she looked very healthy. Since then her leaves have all flopped down. I'm pretty sure I've been over watering. She's now being supported. Will she recover? see before and after pics

Snapped Plant
One of my little guys was kinda snapped/snapped and peeled down a bit but not a full break in the stem. I created a little splint and taped it up and it’s kinda looked the same all day. Do you think it will survive or it a break of that kind at this size the end of it? 😢
