I dropped a light on mine early on too, not quite that badly but still got a burn. I just continued as if nothing happened and sure enough she grew right out of it! Shouldn't kill your girl, just might slow her down a bit for now.

I was wondering about that; should i trim the leaves off or should i just let them stay??
Let them stay, cutting it off, especially right now when she's so young, will shock her more than I am guessing the burn will. Though there are burn spots that leaf is still capturing light and feeding your plant, cutting off the leaf won't do anything beneficial that I can think of.

But then again I am a noob so if anyone with more experience knows of a good reason to cut the leaf then pleas correct me.

I am working with a white rhino from fem seed, the rhino is the shortest... bushiest.. darkest smelliest plant I have. The rest of the plants are from clones and are more sativa than indica so they are a little taller.. just keep going with it bro I found mine to be a slow starter but once the roots developed it was like a monster growing 2' a night.

Hey All, sorry for the delay lately.

Today was the first day of the bloom-phase, decided i wanted to ease them into it, so for the first 3-4 days i'll be doing 8 hours dark/16 hours light, then after that i'll switch to a 12/12 cycle. Ignore the horrible lack of light; these pictures were taken in a place where they'll only be stored for a day (or two); by tomorrow night they'll be in their new home for the next 9-10 weeks and they'll have much, much, much more light. The one that got burned is rebounding nicely; you were all right; it was amazing what even a day of darkness did to them!

1st Picture is of the largest one... a bushy freak (but also decently tall), 4th is of the one that got burned, with the *used to be* mini one next to it.

also what type of water are you using? i have seen something similar happen to my plants when i used tap water. i think it was from there being too much minerals in the water(my house is on well water.)

Why do you think there's something wrong with the ph? It would seem strange that it'd be off considering i JUST transplanted them last week, but you are correct, i have not been testing the ph levels. I'm in the same situation as you, using very clean well water.
