My seed has been in the window for seven days. It has been sunny for the last five days. The plant looks yellowish could it be sun burn bleaching the young leaves?

hi there macky, to me it looks like you're using something called "potting soil" for your medium. This is will cause this issue, why? because potting soil is peat, which is basically not soil at all, in fact it's a soiless medium. Soiless means you're missing out on nutrients for example calcium and magnesium, which will lead to the seedlings showing signs of magnesium deficiency for example like what you're seeing here. So you need to add calmag, and actually you'll need to have a full on nutrient schedule going forward. I could be wrong though, but probably not :-) hope this helps ! 🚀

For me it looks allright man, just new foliage that is squezing out that little plant, new veg is lots of time bit more lightgreen when it pops out, itt will be darker green when it can properly photosynthesyse

Looking like you might be watering a little too much or your ph is starting to get out of range in soil. Perhaps a touch of both. Good luck and happy growing 🌱

Don't think window sun would do it...I'd be more suspicious of maybe a heavy hand in watering.

No, my friend, the leaves are very young, those leaves will stretch a lot in the next couple of days.
