She has been crooked at the top since she broke soil, now she's 4-5 cm tall in a matter of 6 hours, but the seed shell is still holding on??
looks like it was one of those beans where the seed-cap doesn't want to come off. more details would be good. soil looks pretty wet. are you letting it dry up between waterings/feeds? very important to let er dry up. still too young for food, you feeding? what about your medium, pre-ferted??? it'll prob pull through.

Other seedlings are moving much much slower than her.

imo, this is the problem when using too large a container for your plant. takes forever for your medium to dry up. so when it comes time to feed, your still soaking wet, you feed, and now you've overwatered causing the droop.
The shell might come off but I had two that I carefully removed the shells off of and it helped. The shell staying on is likely a symptom of planting too shallow in the dirt. The shell usually comes off while working its way through the dirt. Next time, plant it down a little lower, maybe another half inch or so. Its worth helping the shell off - it can leave a slimy substance on the leaves and cause some burn. I had one suffer this. It recovers fine but why have it happen if you can avoid it?

Yeah make sure u just stick to the basic's like enough light and warmth just keep her happy that'll fall off in a day of so! Good luck Missevo
I took the seed casing off, I'll post a progress pic tonight! She's growing faster than I imagined she would!
If she is stretching then you may want to move the light closer. You can also, very carefully, bury some stem. Use a teaspoon and go slow.

[quote name='"GrapeDutchh"'] If its a CFL it should have been that close from the get go bro Dutchie[/quote] I hear yahh, but I was having mixed opinions about the seedling needing light, people were telling my to put it under the lights only when the first 2 leaves are visible?
Good job, man. I think the plant appreciates you helping it out like that. Just bury seeds a little deeper when first planting next time.
