Yah very wet. Look how the moisture is wicking up the label. Wet dirt in contact with the stem is an invitation to fungal invasion (notably 'damping off').

At this stage the surface should be dry while the roots drill for water. In small pots like this I like to bottom water when the pot feels light.
