Those little round leaves yellowing and falling off are a natural part of the process. They have served their purpose (to feed the seedling) and will now fall off.

Its prob hungry. I dont do soil grows but you should list what soil you use and all the details of your grow so the soil growers can easily help.

Looks hungry to me she needs nitrogen/ may not be the best soil. What soil are you using? my new seedlings are 8 days above ground and are bigger than those/ they don’t look bad but are definitely lagging if they are 4 weeks old

Lots of soil choices I use fox farms happy frog. You can find it online or find a local supplier on there website. As far as adding nitrogen again I use fox farms nutrients so I would need to add grow big. It’s usually sold in a trio with all the necessary additives except calmag. Any other questions?

Wow yeah you definitely gotta get on a feeding schedule or in a enriched soil. I would go ahead and transfer it to a bigger pot too. Just when you look at a feeding chart treat it as a seedling not a 4 week old plant because development wise it’s not there.
The good news is when you get it transfered to better soil it will have enough nutrients in the soil for the next 4 weeks.
Seedling issues, especially with yellowing leaves, are almost always caused by watering issues and poor root development, not nutrient deficiencies.
You are watering a little every day or two and not allowing the pot to dry out.
Instead, you should be soaking until runoff and leaving it alone until it is almost dried out, and then repeat.
