Why is my plant still short, is this normal for a week old plant?

Hey everyone I'm just wondering if it looks normal for a week old plant. It seems a little short and the cotyledon leaves are burned because I used tin foil the first 2-3 days. I thought it was the mg burning it but the new leaves are growing in just fine it seems. Tips would be appreciated thanks!

Your looking good bro. Right now the plant is putting its energy in the roots give it another week to 10 days.
Be patient with the lings. Yours looks great.

Look ok to me, I'd say you're planting just a little bit too deep, hence the seedling is so close to the ground.

People who have tried to use Miracle Gro find that it's to "hot" for seedlings. To me, the plant looks tiny for 7 days.

also, did you use a starting plug then plant that in the soil? That could be a problem too.
