Drooping seedlings after transplant

Greetings all, my first grow with modern equipment! These seedlings were transplanted 1 week ago and have drooped ever since. They are growing taller but drooping. Should I repot them into something bigger now? It looks like over watering but I’ve only watered once and soil is almost completely dry. Temp is 75 to 81 40 - 45 percent humidity. Light is 300 watt Mars hydro fc3000 Evo on 40 percent about 14 inches from plants. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I think your light is too close. I usually run my 200w at 24-26 inches at 50% power for seedlings. And i would wait until the plant us as wide as the container before transplanting up. Your humidity is low as well. 55-65% is what my seedlings like

Temps look great, that RH needs to be around 65% or more. Check the PPFD at the top of the plants for the light setting. That should be around 300-400 :love_you_gesture:

Thank you! I have checked and adjusted light intensity and I just installed a humidifier as well so hopefully I can get them straightened out. Thanks for your help all!

I have the old version of you light. I set it at 25% and 24" above the canopy. Then bring the light down as the plants desire. Once its at 18" above the canopy you can turn it up 3-5% at a time. It works great.
