Seedling leaves pointing straight up and twisting???

[eg1111]

I am currently working on my 4th grow. This is in Promix Moisture Potting Mix... I am worried something is wrong with the soil here. I germinated in a rapid rooter on a heating mat and waited for first set of leaves...then after a few days the leaves started to twist and stick straight up. Seems like the second set of leaves are starting to come in...no discoloration and otherwise seems healthy... what the heck is going on here?

75W Rapid LED cob
5 gallon fabric pot
just plain water a few days before I moved it into the soil...
I did have a plastic container over it the first few days for humidity then heard about "damping off" and decided to remove it...then this started to happen.

74 ish degrees 55ish humidity

Look up VPD - vapor pressure deficit
I'd guess you need to raise both temp and humidity.
Prob around 80F and 75%RH

I don't have a real good way of doing this at the moment. Should I put it back under a dome of some sort?

Yeah a clear plastic cup will make a decent cloche at that size. make sure you put some pencil sized holes in it then lightly mist the inside with water. I've used plastic cake containers from the grocery too.

Covered it back up. I'll let you know how it goes in a few hours

if it stays steamy you need to let it breathe more.

I'm gonna let the humidity and heat in the dome tick up for a few hours just to see if the leaves start to go back to normal...
if this doesn't seem to help then I'm gonna assume it could be something else...
maybe just a wild seedling and will get better after it grows more.

Domes are for clones.

how close is your light ? Some times leaves point up to cut down on the angle of the light so it doesn't get hit full on.
