What are you doing? It's fine, put it back under the light.

You should probably give it water and you should have put it in a smaller pot so it can reach what it needs.
If leaves turn yellow i heard it might be from too much heat? I have around 82-84f under light.

It can be more than that, and you raise the light, you don't remove it, man. How's the little guy supposed to photosynthesize?

82-84 is a LITTLE high, but not too high. Raise the light higher.

70-80 is where you want it, but that's npt too high.
Heh, It's under light now. It straighten back up now
Any idea why the edge of leaves are yellow?
Is it because it got burned?
Basically it is 80.6f now as i raised lights.
But i am worried it might stretch since lights are a bit more than 2 feet up.
Edit: well a friend checked it and said it was nutrient burn..

Funny enough I got more or less the same problem, with some of my seedlings but the sister sitting right next to it are doing fine, all three have been getting same water no nutes, just a drop of "super thrive " in a cup of rain water and a little "clonex" in the bottom of the pot..... That's all and they all got same treatment and light....?Is it just some week seeds(seedlings) ... Since one are fine and another yellow and hanging with the leaves....?

There are a few reasons you see things like this on seedlings. To much water (common mistake it seems), to close to the lights/high/low temps, and crap substrate. Those three things manifest sickly looking plants when this small.

You need to get your lights closer and hit them with a fan to keep temps down. Your seedlings look stretched and nute burned. Stop feeding if you are, and just water use a spray bottle. Maybe do a light flush to help with the burn.
You can bury some of the stem when you put it in a bigger pot. What kind of lights are you using?
