Leaves pointing up

Whenever you search for ideas of why leaves point up, you get many answers depending on the situation. So I thought I'd try to get input into my own. The newest growth on my vegging plant is pointing straight up.

Strain: Female Seeds Neville's Haze
Lighting: 2 - 55w PLL (9600 lumens) at 6" from plant top (2-3" now because leaves are pointing up).
Soil: Modified "Mel's Mix" (1/3 peat moss, 1/3 compost from several sources, 1/6 perlite, 1/6 course vermiculite) with lime and 1 tbsp/gallon soil of Jobes Organics (4-4-4).
Temps: 79F
Rh: 45%

I have not watered this plant in a week but the soil is still moist about 3" down. It was transplanted a week ago from a solo cup to a 3 gal. fabric pot. From time to time when I check it, the newest growth is pointing up or laying flat. Everything seems to be fine, color is good.

Any ideas?

(No it is not deformed, I just happened to catch a pic when the oscillating fan was blowing on it.)

At different times in the light cycle my leaves point up. Never all at once but maybe 3 or 4 plants at a time.

This is totally normal..i have 2 GrandDaddyPurple 4 days into flowering already...anyway my plants did this also, it can be becuz they are raising to let sum light hit the stem..otherwise its becuz they are new leaves.. :weed:

Yeah, tbh, I was not too concerned, so I posted this here instead of the "Marijuana Plant Problems" section. Overall, she is doing fine I think, though she went under some light stress early in life. Just wanted to get some feedback as this is turning out to be my first successful grow (thus far).

I am going to water first thing tomorrow morning, my finger test showed there was still some moisture in the soil, but I judged by weight and the amount of moisture that it was ready for another round of water. Plus I want to build up the soil a bit higher, it compacted since the transplant.
