Why is she drooping/sad?

Monday I transplanted her from a solo cup (FF happy frog ) to a 3 gallon fabric pot (mainly FF OF with some happy frog and a good amount of perlite). Yesterday I put her under her new light (300 true watt LED) @ 50% power 24” away from the top of the leaves. Before that She was under 52 watt CFL 5600k. Today I noticed she wasn’t looking happy and was kinda droopy. What do you guys think is going on? I’ve been watering with distilled water and don’t believe I have been overwatering. Is this shock from transplanting? New lighting? Is the new light too strong and making her shy away from it? I’m kinda lost and appreciate any input

Could be from the fresh watering and transplant. I'd give it a day and keep us updated. Do you have a little discoloration on your leaves?

The leaves have been that color since it was a seedling. But she has grown very quickly. Havent had any dropping like this yet until now

She got watered lightly when I transplanted to 3 gallon on Monday. I only watered the soil under the leaves and didn’t water to runoff, not trying to overwater it.

Idk, but pretty much every mistake I have made in all my 1-1/2 grows is me doing too much. First I drown, then overfeed, then maybe some lockout...
I like to mix it up:)
From lessons learned on my pepper and tomato plants in berger peat mix, only water soil when the pots are very light and dry on the top.
