Looks starved for light, thus the light color

Whats your growing medium? Typically yellowing of leaves are magnesium deficiency. Maybe some calmag and a light feeding with nitrogen will for sure bring out the chlorophyll in the leaves which will bing out the green. But considering its only in week 1 I'd make sure the pH is in range and a good wet/dry cycle is in practice. Your medium looks pretty dry in the attached photos.

Iam going to guess that's rockwool.
I would try to get that poor thing in some good soil asap.

Rockwool is fine just a bit more work. Light like Chris said. But I would be feeding that plant. From the time mine sprout they are fed full strength veg food. Mag may help but i would feed at a ph of 5.8 and get decent light. I don't baby my plants they start outdoors under the sun so indoors they get full light as well. Also depending on the strain some reddish purple on the stem may never go away. Nitrogen is what makes them green, the mag make it all work. Some need more than others.

I see You did a living soil run in your grow.. what do you think about this sohum brand soil?

Never used it but it sounds decent, sounds better than your average big box store soil.
I think ingredient wise I still prefer the Buildasoil Oly mountain modern mix 2 soil and sprinkle in a cup of Craftblend amendment into that and I am good to go.
Plus IMO to be a true Living Organic soil it needs a few hundred worms, about 4" of good mulch and I also prefer a good cover crop.
Top it with Gro-kashi and wait for the Unicorn Poop to build up.

BuildASoil Craft Blend - Nutrient Pack
BuildASoil Craft Blend started with a big workshop full of the best and cleanest soil amendments available. I quickly became spoiled and would use all of the BuildASoil ingredients together and in different combinations that aren't available here online. After discussing re-amending with a buddy...

Actually Unicorn Poop is the worm castings of my worms eating the Gro-kashi, my chopped up cover crop, the Craftblend and yucca along with the corn and alfalfa meal from making sprouted seed teas.
The worms turn all that goodness into Unicorn Poop

Welcome, the same site "Buildasoil" has a good cover crop blend also.
Yeah the cover crop is essential IMO for LOS , it will give you free and natural nutrients and good food for the worms, and a living mulch.
