Default Drooping seedlings...
I have them under a 150 watt HPS light in a 2X2 space.

I'm not sure if it is the heat. I had the light off for six hours and it just kicked on 30 minutes ago and this is the first I saw of these plants. All the seedlings are bending over initially.

The light was 18 inches up and I have a small fan blowing down.

I've open the door and raised the light. Is this heat? Or initial watering issues maybe? Or maybe when the light was off six hours they just naturally drooped and they will revive a bit after the ligths been on them?

Any thoughts?

Its probobly cause the fan is blowing to hard on the little guys move the light closer although it could be a combination of the light being too strong and the fan...

Dont water so much too they are strong survivors

Send pictures too for a better diagnosis

As you can see the fan is pretty high up. It's on low so I don't think it is the fan. The room is small. I think it might be heat. I have my spray bottle for misting the soil and the top of the soil would dry out pretty quick like.

I'd spray it so just the top is moist? I dunno, maybe that's overwatering it?

Hell... there are the pics. It's my first time trying it so I leave it to you the experts to help guide my not so green thumb!

wow dude trust me u dont have to worry at all, mine came out like that too, that how they come out is all keep the light pointed to them, i dunno if this is true but i think that the plant can sence the light and it wil try to get as close to it as possible, so eventually they will point up
