You need more light.

more light, and probably less water. when you're in a pot that big, you shouldn't have to water more than once per week, maybe less. You're losing more water to evaporation than to the plant. It is too small to dry the soil ...

i agree with CEESTYLE...easy on the water...ru puting any nutes in?? that may be the bruning at the tip...as far as the stem goes: put a fan in the box blowing on it lightly..that will help it get thicker.....do alot of reading that always helps...good luck and

if you let it grow outside for a little then that will thicken up the stem for sure

is the light hitting only one side of the plant? plants tend to follow light.

...3 weeks old? you need smaller pot if you water that much, you need more light and you can not use nutes in beginning with this soil, it has ehough goodies to grow without nutes for ~2 to 3 weeks.

u may want to start over again, cause plant that big usually grows in 3 to 4 days with good care and normal lights.

+ dont forget about fan.

good luck
