Put it in a pot until it's a foot tall. One gallon is a good size.

give it a couple weeks. you don't want your soil topack. the freeier the roots grow in the soil the better

thats the thing though its already in one..i mean is it natural that its loose that early though? just because the roots havent gotten large enough yet?

Add enough soil to help the plant stand upright. Don't pack it too tight.

Let gentle watering tighten your soil. Don't pack it with your fingers.
