Hola amigo... Debes hacer varias cosas...
1. Llena de tierra cubriendo el tallo lo más que se pueda.
2. No riegues con tanta agua. A esa edad la planta no necesita tanta agua. Riega con 200ml y espera de seque bien. Las hojas caída es por eso.
3. Deja la cáscara que se caerá en algún momento.
Vas muy bien. Espero te sirva mi respuesta.

Yes, definitely over watered. Don't worry, just don't add any more water and she'll recover. The seedling needs a lot less water than you think and is a easy mistake to make.
I would recommend not to cover the stem with any soil, actually keep it as clear as you can. If you cover the stem, there might be bugs in the soil/mulch that could potentially damage the small seedling. At this stage, the stem is very soft and easy for bugs to bite into.
I wouldn't worry too much about the shell, it's on the cotyledon and not on the leaves so shouldn't be an issue. If you do feel like you want to remove, put a drop of water or two (just a drop, nothing more), to soften it up a bit and it should make it easier to remove.
Hope it helps.
Good luck with your grow mate.

Definitely try your best to take the seed casing off the seedling. BE VERY CAUTIOUS ⚠️. AND try to let them sit without watering for a few days , she'll come back to life like nothing happened. Good luck 👍

Droopy plantFirst thought over watered in a fabric pot feeding 3ml a day in 1L ph’d water, 24 hours later no improvement. Now I’m pushed to a nitro excess or a feed excess as most leaves are shiney solid green. Still using oldtimer grow as 5 days into flower. Should I flush and move to bloomPlant. Wilting

Tips for Helping Overwatered Seedling Recover?Seedling won’t stand upright anymore, I think I overwatered. Is there anything else to be done aside from waiting and seeing? I propped her up so she wasn’t laying in the coco - just don’t know what else to do for her, if anything.Week 2

Seedling wilting/burned?My Black Jack seedling seems to be getting burned. I had 2 grow lights on her and her siblings, at about 2 feet away. I turned one off, but the way she looks burned has me concerned that there's something else causing it. Any ideas?Week 3

Over water or under, help much appreciatedAfter 24 hours from a 1.5 litre watering the medium feels very dry and pot is light. Is this still looking over watered or could it possibly be under watered ? Been advised to only give 850 ml in this 8.5 litre pot but I’m thinking could it be soil too compact or something?Week 3
