Hello everyone. This is my first time grow.

I have 1 PPP and 2 mystery seeds. I started this grow March 5th, spent 3 days germing before planting. Currently its a pretty basic setup, two of the $6 home-depot light clamps attached to a cardboard box (i know, i know. i'm getting a tent in the next couple weeks).

I didn't take any pictures when i started to germ or anything, so the first picture is of the setup after i planted them in the dirt.

Pretty basic setup, only 4 lights, all 100w equiv (~23 watts i think). I'm not sure if thats enough lights or not (although at this stage it doesn't matter much). Also, the temps remain cool. Always around ~70-72F.

So this is the PPP. I actually had to dig out the sprouts from the dirt (i think on the 10th or 11th.)
I think at this point i'm severely underwatering the plants. I didn't flush the soil first (in the future i think ill do a boiling water flush to kill any gnat eggs)

Also the PPP next day afternoon ish. Not sure about the growth but its still alive so all is well. It's at this time i believe my soil is stunting growth. I started with Ocean Forest by Fox Farms but i felt it was too strong for the seedling. I mixed it up with some Light Warrior.

Still the PPP, second set of leaves are coming along. To me this seems like its progressing very slowly. Tonight I decide to water them more than i had previously, maybe 1/3 - 1/2 cup.

I think she really liked all the water i gave her as she grew a lot that night.
The second plant is the stronger of the two mystery seeds (started with 3, but it died).
Third is the runt of the mysteries.

PPP is doing really well (first). Second mystery has a crooked leaf.. i have no idea why. Suggestions?. Third is still the runt, kinda stunted. Also, I started to combat the gnats with sand. Plants seem find, i've killed 2 gnats but have seen none since.
The forth is the PPP last night (for comparison for next morning.) I also watered the plants for the first time at night.
