We were saying it wouldn't grow very well in what you had going on and would be eaten if the snails were going to be an issue. Low budget is fine. You can get amazing results shopping clearance racks.
Since that is hot soil (new soil that has not been watered) give it a good watering around the seedling to about 3". Maybe a quart of water. Do it again in a few hours. Ultimately, washing a cup full of soil is good practice when seeding fresh store bought soil.
Seedlings this young do not need nutrients at all. Especially since you are growing in soil. Read up on Black Gold Soil. It will tell you how long you can go without needing to add nutrients. Usually, that's 3-6 months. When you go to flowering, that's when you start with flowering nutes.C'mon, mule!

Remember, you are talking to people who are probably stoned. Sorry if I sounded discouraging. I was shooting for helpful with a hint of urgent coyness.
Better than cheap stuff is free stuff. If you know someone who grows and might look to upgrade, they might be a good resource. Same-same with people who garden. Half what I have was either free from a neighbor or repurposed from our apartment trash bins. My next grow will be in used coco. I used the same twisty ties for training for four years.
Spend money on important things like light and water/soil probes. Autos are good to grow because they don't need a tent to grow indoors. You will need fans pretty soon. I don't drop too many brands, but Hurricane is a good brand that people around here have good things to say about. I have three that are at least 5 years old. Four cheap fans lasted a grow.
Little things that might be ghetto work just as well as big ticket items. You can also piece things together over time.
C'mon, mule!

About your tomatoes, Gator.
They haven't even flowered, yet. First, veg. Second, flower. Third, tomatoes. You've probably just been harvesting too early for the tomatoes to develop. It's a newbie mistake. I did it my first couple grows.
C'mon, mule!

Funny thing is that I can't ever get a red tomato, but I don't mind the green ones
