Overwatering or heat stress?

Hey there, I'm wondering if any more experienced growers can help identify if I have an issue on my hands. This is my first grow and I just removed the seedlings humidity dome a couple days ago. It looks to me like the edges of the leaves are starting to curl up and the leaves in general are more droopy this morning. The hottest this plant has seen is about 81f and a low of 65f, the lowest humidity it has seen is about 60% with a high of 80%. I've been watering about every 48 hours and just around the base of the plant in a circle about an inch wider that the breadth of the leaves, and it's potted in ProMix HP. Any idea what I'm doing wrong or if I'm just over thinking? Thanks in advance!

Over thinking this one bud. She looks fine. You may consider watering further away from the base of the plant. I have killed a few by watering right at the base.

DOH!

Thus "What?"

If you want a suggestion then perhaps the light closer or turned up a bit to encourage tight internodal spacing.
That is if you want.

Is this your only?
Might go ahead and transplant into the final size pot shortly.
There is a thing called the "Root-Brain" and the less the roots are disturbed the happier the plant will be, in my opinion.

You can wait a while no hurry but it's an idea.

Yeah this is my only plant and first time growing. I kind of germinated the seed as an experiment and then felt bad letting it die, so I got a 3x3 tent and I'm going to try my hand at it. I do want to transplant soon when the tent gets here, and that's interesting I'll keep that in mind!

No not really. I wouldn't say stretched.
It looks normal and healthy.

It's just that you "can" do that thing but you don't have to.

Look I sense this is your very first time. It's okay to question everything.

I said this to someone else not too long ago.
It's advice from the daze when Jesus walked among us.
"Give a man some weed and he smokes for a day. Teach him to grow his own and your stash will last longer."

Plenty of wise folk on RIU and then there are people who mean well mostly.
