What's wrong with my plant?

I'm a first time grower & I'm growing only one plant until I feel comfortable. It's a outside plant but for now it's inside since it's just a baby & I'm very excited for it.. but it's droopy.. and sometimes it just falls over. She's just leaning in the pic but I tied her back up once I realized she fell over. What's wrong with it?

just keep it propped up, it will be fine, what lighting are you using? Don't over water or over fertilizer

Nothing is wrong with,,,when the plants first sprout and break the surface the have the 2 round embro leaves as it devolopes fast it gets it's first set of true leaves,,it makes it very heavy for the new tiny plant ,,take a few tooth picks and put them in on all sides,be gentle as he is young as he grows he will fating up his stalk some this will happen from movement in breeze will help as it breaks cells walls and makes them become thicker and will strengthen the plant,,if your keeping him inside and he is your only baby use a florescent lamp and he will develop well,,,be sure when you do get ready to put him out side you harden him off bye putting him in the shade outside for the first week so he gets use to natural sunlight ,,or he can go in shock ,,sun is much more intense then any man maid light so he will have to get use to it in the shade works great

I'm just using sunlight

It's droopy because the stem isn't very strong yet and it's been stretching to find the light. There's nothing wrong with it.

If you were growing with artificial lights inside, you could get the light closer and put a gentle fan on it to get it swaying in the wind which strengthens the stem.

Since this is an outside plant you just need to keep it propped up until it gets a bit stronger.

Looks fine they take a while to get strong don't worry

Looks good
