There are a crazy amount reasons why that can happen, and some of those you cannot ever control. For example I was given an original bubba kush cut some years ago, so I never saw what it looked like grown from a seed. Anyhow, I took 5 or 6 cuts from that cut and selfed them so I could have seeds from that original babba kush cut. Then when I started growing those seeds I noticed every seedling looked like shit, twisted leaves, crazy deformed leaves. Really they looked so bad that I threw the first few batches away. But then one of my buds said, before you throw them out, let them at least grow a few of their secondary nodes, to see what those look like. So the next set I started I did that and only then did the plants fix their selves, ie; they looked beautiful just like their mother. So in other words, it could simply be a trait of the strain, which has a real hard time starting off, or like I said before it could be caused by so many other things. But, normally when it isn't a natural trait, its usually caused by a pH issue. So check your mediums pH level and the pH level of the water / feed you are given the seedling. Also I would gently pull that seedling out of that container and replant her up to her sucker leaves, then put her closer to the light you are using so she quits all that crazy stretching!
