Hey there buddy, I think you will be fine, it's pretty hard to overwater sprouts, they'd normally have to be sitting in a puddle for a couple days. Even then most would be fine. Many seedlings look a little odd at first and I've had plenty with droopy looking leaves, but none of them ever showed weirdness after a few nodes of growth. Personally I wouldn't worry too much if it's still green and upright... Are there any nutes in there yet?

Nice man ill be checking that out!
I would hold off on any major nutes (anything over 1/16th to 1/8th strength) for the first couple of weeks, it seems to interfere with many autos. I have fed before they showed sex and I think, every time, that it slowed growth a bit. I know it seems small but the round cotyledon leaves that pop first have quite a lot of stored nutrients and if they are still plump and not shriveled, then it's not gonna starve anytime soon. Remember that the nutes you feed it are not (for the most part) what gives the plant it's mass, that is mostly water and carbon pulled from the air.

agreed with @surffreak . I'm growing hempy's now (day 50-55) and didn't start in with nutes for a bit. Light water with a dropper literally until it started to take hold and get 3 sets of leaves. Then very light like 1/16th, just a touch as i watered every couple days. Once it hits the reservoir you can start in on 1/4 strength nutes then work your way up to 1/2, but probably should not go above 1/2.
