try and put a fon to create a low breeze or you can even try and ty it up to a little stick to help it grow until the stem gets a bit thicker also move your light a little closer but everything looks healthy except the stem good luck keep me updated on your plant i got one i the same stage

Thanks for the advice. I did that last night and she looks sooo much better today. I have the lights about 3 inches from her. I had it closer and it started to burn the leaves. I thought it was to young for that to happen and it be ok. Am I wrong?

3 inches may be a lil close and it is better to risk your plant by tying it up then have a dead one on the ground only ty it up if it looks like it is about to fall
