I would transplant and start lowering the light.

Maybe support it with a thin wire or wood stake. I use cotton string and clothes pins. When you transplant, bring new dirt up higher towards the first leaves.

Put some air across those leaves to strengthen the stalk

What^^^ they said. Your light is 100w. Should not be more than 20" above canopy.

Thanks everybody. I have lowered the lights down to 20 inches and supported her with some toothpicks. I will see how it goes. Cheers y'all

yep she stretched a bit causing her to be bit too heavy for the roots to support, she’ll be fine with advice from above members.

Yea what u need to do is transplant into a pot, if it is still leaning tie 2 bread ties together, take a lighter and burn plastic off 1 half of one end, stick the wire away from seedling then make a loupe around seedling this will hold it in place till stem hardens.
