What the fuck, this guy tells you his giving it nutes, and it's barely out of the ground, and you're looking at other options?
My first course of action. Stop nutrients. My second. Control the heat (if it is heat). I put my seedlings 3in from my 50w t5, and it doesn't burn them. But regardless, stop the nutes. They can grow for weeks in an inert medium with just tap water. They're born with enough fuel to grow for a bit broheem

I'm very green around the collar, so please by no means take my thoughts too seriously. But I have experienced heat problems that caused my leaves to curl upward on their edges cause I had my lights too close. People here told me to raise my lamps and within a days time they started to look normal. So I real don't think you have a heat problem nor not enough lumens for seedlings. From what I have read and pics posted here from other beginners like our selves, it looks like you need to stop the feed since the soil will provide enough for such young seedlings. Good luck

Looks really stretched to me.... Why move the lights further away 
. Did you put any perlite, or anything to help the aeration and drainage of the soil, and you gots a fan on it? From what I've been reading soil out of your backyard usually isn't a good idea 
, you also shouldn't be feeding it any nutrients until it's much more developed. You should also let the soil dry out real good before watering again, these last seeds I planted got fucked up because the soil wasn't drying out 
Ooo and also how much of that fertilizer are you putting in 16oz of water...? I gotta feeling you probably burned it. When I start to feed, I only start with 1/8 tsp per gallon of water

Title says it all. What fan would you all recommend. Also, homemade alternatives anybody?

Stop feeding your plant you burned it.

What action would would you take if you were me low on budget

Id cut it out. Get rid rid of all that dirt in some water and put it in coco. But thats cuz it's a seedling and I would have no time invested in it. So if it didnt last oh well. But I would've researched more in the beggining anyways and not made these mistakes to begin with.
