Is she looking healthy? Day 4 after being planted. I apologise for the frequent questions but as this is my only seed I’m very paranoid. Haven’t been able to use the sun much as it’s been hiding behind those pesky clouds 😞 so LEDs mostly.

plants take in moisture through roots and release water through their leaves and not vice versa unless we’re talking about cuts waiting to root. the reason you keep a higher rh in veg state is not so that plant takes up moisture from the air mostly but at low rh stomatas close or severely shrink in order to conserve and regulate water content inside the leaves which in turn slows down growth because the way plant takes up nutrient and water is through pressure basically. as it releases water through stomatas it pulls water into the leaves and that water is pulled by the roots from the medium. so more water it releases through its leaves more nutrients and water are taken in by the roots. but as stomata closes in extremely low rh this process slows down. anything over 40% is managable though and 55-60% is good in seedling and veg. and again i wouldnt wrap a seedling with wet towel just water your plants and gice it support because that little gal will fall over in a slight wind.

Last time I checked, them little things are pebbles and perfectly fine for keeping a drier base around the stem. So Idk what that comment is below. But the towel thing, if you are low on RH to help seedlings grow its best to have a high RH so the leafs can take up moisture. She looks really healthy and well. It's early days and all and more often than not most ladies will look like that in this stage. This is the easy part. Just keep a light diet or none really up to your. Good luck.

you may not want to encircle or wrap your seedling in wet towels that may cause stem rot/damping off and its really unnecessary to be honest

Looks very good! I have two seedlings same age and rejoiced at the cloudy day today because that's the BEST time to get them out adjusting to true sunlight... even a cloudy day will beat artificial lights... clouds do not stop the UV rays! I encircle the seedling with a wet towel to make sure the humidity is up there, too, while allowing good airflow. You don't want to set out your seedling in bright sunlight - so you may just want to get her out now and get her stronger! Good luck!

All looks good. Don't worry about asking questions, that's what this part of the site is for. The more you ask the more you will learn. Just wait for a few answers before choosing your solution as different people may see different problems. I agree with previous post about it stretching a little as you light is quite week. But as weather hasn't been good for you your doing the best for the plant by keeping it inside.

looks healthy my man. a little stretchy but healthy. and stretch was to be expected with the lights you have atm you should keep those lights close to the plant as they are maybe 10 true watts or something.
