It’s been outside hardened off for a few weeks before transplantI always would put the plant (in pot) outside in the shade for couple days. Especially if it’s hot and intense sunshine, best is overcast. It’s called hardening the plant. Don’t over water it and it will come around.
This ^^^
Plants started indoor are not hardened off to the effects of UV. Your plants will be pissy for a week or so then bounce back... if you can shade them a little it will ease the stress a bit until they harden off

Looks stressed by light and heat? You in a really dry climate?It’s been outside hardened off for a few weeks before transplant
It’s possible , I’m in southern Ontario it’s been abnormally hot this week pushing up into the 30s through the weekend humidity is sitting at 40 currently but I’ll keep an eye on it to see how it changes through out the day. Is it safe to say this isn’t overwatering? I’m scared to not water this week as the weathers been so hot and sunny but the looks of the plant have been keeping me from watering other than misting the leaves to keep it cool once a day. It’s only been 4 days since water but if it doesn’t perk up I’m gonna have to water before the weeks over regardless.Looks stressed by light and heat? You in a really dry climate?
wouldn't heat cause praying in leaves?It’s been outside for weeks it’s either the transplant or the watering or the heat
It can when leaves get hot you see edges curl and light stress and heat (if raising the leaf temps to high) can cause them to taco to reduce light capture.wouldn't heat cause praying in leaves?
So I'm curious what the soil is like? Have you amended it? Lots of clay? I mean it does have some swelling in the leaves and it could just be from heat, light or water stress (meaning not able to pull enough water fast enough so the stomata close to preserve water which can cause leaf temps to rise and and in turn heat/light stress so then the plant tries to reduce light capture by folding the leaves. The droop is from the stomata closing which reduces flow of water through the plant and it loses some rigidity in the stems and the heavy leaves cause it to droop. That looks like classic overwatering also and it could be but there are other reasons for low 02 in the rootzone (which is what over watering causes) like a very dense soil that doesn't breathe well.It’s possible , I’m in southern Ontario it’s been abnormally hot this week pushing up into the 30s through the weekend humidity is sitting at 40 currently but I’ll keep an eye on it to see how it changes through out the day.

The surrounding soil has a lot of clay but I dug a nice hole and filled it with a loam compost mix and some 444 organic dry amendments I also added rice hulls and perlite in good amounts. I’m wondering if I’m getting some sitting water in the bottom of the hole but I doubt the roots are anywhere near that yet. I may try a light watering in a day or two if things don’t improve to see how the plant reacts.So I'm curious what the soil is like? Have you amended it? Lots of clay?

No coco or salts hereNever let the coco dry out big mistake as they will suck the salts out of it and pot ends up to salty for them if it does dry out just give water or u will fry them more
I looked at the plant more and nothing is really wrong with it to me and nothing to worried about if they was curled like a cigar then yes .salts same as rich nute soil can be to strong as such fertNo coco or salts here
