Hi @coffeeboy. Welcome to GN. Like @oldguy says, the soil looks very wet. You need to let it dry out a little and let the roots get some air. You might also want to check the pH of your water. What soil are you growing in?

+To wet. Get it out of the Solo cup and into some new soil. don’t water until the soil is light in weight.
They only need a light misting when this young. They transpire thru their leaves as not enough roots have developed yet.
Lots of holes in your container and let them dry good between waterings.

i asume you that my roots where fully developed in the solo cup thats why i transplanted to this bigger can
niw is geting worse uper leaves are started to yellowing what can i do save it help
The container seems to have no air flow. The roots need air. I will poke a ton of holes in my plastic pots.
When the soil is very wet with no air flow, the plant will seek like is drowning.
Heavy leaves drooping means to wet. These leaves will maintain their shape, due to the abundance of water.
Light leaves drooping means to dry. Also the leaves will get very limp.

All the info the guys gave is true. Needs new soil or more holes for air flow. Both are the same. Transplanting into a new bigger container with holes is best.

Don’t over water. The roots grow by searching for water. So the more its wet, the slower growth is. So you want to make her search for water by waiting till she’s dry and lightweight when picked up. You will start to know the feel.
Or she stays to wet and will drown.

Trust the consensus…Too much water
Welcome to GN. I agree, too much water. Soil naturally drains all but enough to keep damp. If your containers don’t do this, then you will have problems like this.

Give it clean water for a day or two and give it time. It was likely tramuatized by the move.

What do you mean changed the soil?
i mean i took out the rootbal with the soil and put it in a new soil with new pot cause before i did this i have transplanted again to different container but some guys told me that the pot hadn"T good airflow so i put it out the root ball wit the soil and put it in new soil with new fabric pot
Like you just popped out the whole plant in the small container, and then popped the whole thing ( undisturbed ) into the new pot with soil?
Like this?
