Seedling leaves sticking straight up

Hi guys/gals!!

I just moved my autoflower seedling from my LED closet under 12/12 to my smaller grow tent under CFLs at 24/0 to increase light duration, and bc my LED closet is a bit crowded. Now my autoflower seedling has it’s leaves sticking straight up, and I’m searching for answers. As with everything in the growing world, there are mixed thoughts about why, so looking for more opinions!

My specs: Tangerine dream auto that’s been germinated for like 2 weeks, in kind soul with coco, leaves sticking up with little growth and yeollowish. I’ve only down with liquid nutes and coco before, and never had this problem. I’ve completed two grows in this ten with photoperiods ( NL and P13) with success, and currently have two other P13 seedlings in coco only in this same tent with no Howard leaves. My obvious first thoughts are heat stress vs increased light that seedling is not used to vs the seedling not quite hitting the kind soil yet and struggling for nutes? What argues against heat stress is the other two seedlings look good. What argues for the nute issue is the other two seedlings doing well are in coco + GH trio. Help!!

Yeah, pictures would help, but if she's in KindSoil and 2weeks old, she ought not be to yellow, unless, she got burnt-stunted when real young.
A lot of folks call that praying, when the leaves are pointing up, it also means, it's about time to water, when the leaves are looking their best.
Can't say anything, much without pictures though, I know I like my leaves pointing up.
 
Classic, too close to the light (stressed from the change, plants love consistency)- back it off for a bit and then bring it closer as tolerated.
 
Yeah I have a plant doing the same thing. Backed my light off and they still sick straight up, but no more yellowing. She's also pretty heavily defoliated. I'll have to see if they do it after watering I never noticed lol.
 
Here are some pics, I just lowered the autoflower that is sticking up away from the lights. Total CFLs are one 125 W daylight + mixture of 8 23 watt regular CFLs. Let me know your thoughts!!
