Is this some sort of issue or a trait of this variety?

I started some assorted beans a couple weeks ago 2 Goji (Binary), 1 Forge (Gnome) and a ? from binary.
The Forge seedling seems to have good color and is growing on par with others, but the leaves are turned down.
That is the Forge in the front. Very light on nutrients so far. Any ideas? I think it may just be its genetics?

Overwatering or poor watering practise/roots. Maybe lights too close. Temps/Rh. These can all cause a plant to wilt.
Judging from the taco on the other ones I'll put my money on too much light.
More grow details can give people a better idea.
Yeah, pulled the lights up a bit this morning. Don't think it's wilt as the leaves are
quite firm. These were all just bumped up from 4 to 8" pots so they are not really
getting any irrigation yet. No temp or RH control. I may move the light up a
bit more. They are going outside in another couple weeks. Hate to have them outside
until they can withstand at least a little of what nature may send their way. Thanks

The soil edging away from the edges of the container tell me it is underwatered. What size pot and how much water are you giving them?

Could be that and too intense of light.
I'm leaning toward light as I just transplanted the plants and I know there
is plenty of moist soil surrounding root ball.

If this is an issue of too much light, how long would you expect the
plant to take to recover?? if I move my LED away from plants? I know a
wilted plant will recover quickly.
