Hey man, don't worry too much, she's still small and can definitely recover. To be honest, those drooping leaves and that slight yellowing at the bottom usually mean one of two things: either you're watering a bit too often or the soil is a little too "hot" (too many nutrients) for her at this stage. Make sure the pot isn't sitting in water and let the soil dry out a good bit before you give her the next drink. Since she's outdoors, just let her do her thing and don't try to fix it with more fertilizer right now—that usually makes it worse. Just a bit of plain water when she's thirsty and some sunshine will do the trick. Keep us posted on how she develops! **Happy Growing Growmie 🌱**

Looks like overwatering and a bit of nutrient deficiency the curling and yellowing suggest the roots aren’t getting enough oxygen, so let the soil dry out more between waterings and start a light feeding

N deficiency at the least. Hard to see anything else with a blurry image.

Well I can't see a fungus on your stem😉 That's very good so nothing happened yet. Might be the medium you are growing in is a bit "hot" (too much nutrients) Next time use light Mix.

Hi Here is the analysis of what is happening to your plant: ​1. Diagnosis: “Damping Off” ​Your seedling is probably suffering from what is called damping off. If you look closely at the base of the stem at ground level, it appears to have thinned, browned and eventually bent. ​The cause: It is a fungus or bacteria that thrives in an environment that is too humid and with too little air circulation. Condition of the leaves: They are still green, which shows that the plant was trying to grow, but the "piping" at the base of the stem has been severed by rot. ​2. Why did this happen? ​Overwatering: This is mistake #1. If the soil remains soggy for too long, the roots and base of the stem will suffocate. ​Stagnant humidity: If you used a humidity dome without ever opening it, the stale air encouraged the growth of fungus. ​Stem too frail: Your plant seems to be a little “stemmed” (it is long and thin), which makes it even more vulnerable to weight as soon as the base becomes fragile. ​3. Can we save her? ​Honestly, once the stem has "melted" and bent like that at the base, the chances of survival are very low. The plant can no longer bring up water and nutrients. ​4. My advice for the “next” seed ​Less water: Water only when the soil is dry on the surface. For a seedling, a few sprays are often enough. ​Ventilation: As soon as the plant emerges from the ground, a light blow from a fan (not directly on it, but in the room) strengthens the stem. ​Cleanliness: Make sure your pots are well disinfected before starting again. ​It's a beginner's classic, we've all almost been there caused by excess humidity at the base of the stem. Don't be discouraged, that's how you learn the "feeling" of watering! I wish you a good evening
