Stretching
Because my seedling stretched a little during her first few days of life, is it safe to bury a small amount of her stem in the substrate when I transplant in a week or two? I'm using coco and perlite 70/30. Actually writing this down made me realize it's probably a stupid idea 🤣

Seedling not showing any growth
One of the seedling is not showing any signs of growth, you can see it in the picture (top left corner). Since this is an autoflower and it has already lost out on 2 weeks of growth I wonder if it is worth keeping it or use the space for another?

Light Burn? Mars Hydro TS3000 at 30% Power, 26 inches away per manual. I have since raised back to 30 inches.
Is this light burn? I noticed some slight yellowing/crispy looking leaf at day 11. Light is about 30% Power, about 30 inches away. I previously had it about 26 inches and raised when I noticed this issue about 24 hrs ago. Pics are updated. Temps: 70-75 RH: 50-60 Soil Runoff: 6.5

Any idea whats wrong with my seedlings?
Hey everyone, I had this issue last time already when I popped about 40 seeds and had to discard more of half of them because of this issue. I pop them as usual in water and put them in my living soil 0,5L pots. As soon as they show on the surface they look like shit... any idea?

please look at my seed 3 days after germination and tell me if she is a goner
my germination pot fell while being moved. one seed got out but it wasn't rooted yet, I put it back in. do you think she will be okey or do I germinate another one? I damaged the tip of the root when putting the root in the hole.

Wrong pot D:
Ive sadly placed my seedling in a pot without any drainage holes at the bottom, how bad is this? I know I need to be careful with overwatering , obviously in 10-15 days when it starts vegging properly Ill transfer it into its final big pot that does have drainage holes.
