it's stretching a bit. that happens. maybe the tap root isn't really stable yet. very carefully prop it up with a tooth pick or paperclip. or, just leave it alone and see if it recovers. your soil looks pretty course so that might be part of the problem. good luck!

Thanks stvitusdance so i should make a stake and stake it next to it and use a bread tie and tie it up so its stable?

sure, you can try that. sometimes it works. sometimes the baby can't take the stress. another option is to take some fine soil and just bury it up to it's top. that way you won't be grabbing and manipulating it. you can bury that whole stem, not the leaves obviously.

chistkabob (however you spell that) usually works well, if you are near a hydro store grab a bamboo stake and some plant tie. if not a branch or small wooden stake of any sort and a zip tie or anything you can use to keep the plant growing up the stake.

You can bury that stem right up to the first set of leaves(I've even gone further)with some sprouts. Good luck.
