Looks like nute burn.

I agree, that what seedlings in a rich soil will do. What type of soil r u using? Maybe a flush would help. Sucks flushing such a little plant but flush it and maybe give it a few days, let it completly dry up before water and no more nutes for a couple weeks.

No it's not pH related, I can almost guarantee you that. You are in soil.

Flush away.........I doubt it will do anything for you, but hey, it won't hurt. That soil is probably precharged with nutrients, and the OP fed on top of that. Time release encapsulated nutrients are very hard to dissolve and wash out. And that is all flushing is, an attempt to "rinse out" excessive chemical salt nutrients.

The plant will probably harden itself to the abundance of nutes. Pre-packaged potting soils are never a good idea for seedlings because almost every one of them are marketed to the lazy american who wants effortless horticulture. They have a 3 month supply of nutrients in time release form.
I'm not saying the plants won't be OK, just saying that you are probably wasting time by flushing. Why is it that flushing is always the first and foremost recommendation regardless of the symptoms?
If you can get some potting soil that has no added nutrients, I'd recommend a transplant. The stress from the transplant will be short lived, nute burn won't be.

You have to think of the person actually growing the plants. Someone who doesnt know what nute burn is or looks like, most likely will not know how to fix it and save their grow. Flushing will remove some of the nute's, there is no denying that, will it remove everything? No. If the plants are suffering excessive nute's in the soil it would only make sense to flush the excess out of the soil.
And as far as ph in soil, if I water my plants with a high or low ph water they turn to shit. I did not get my plants to look like this by not checking the ph of the water.View attachment 2941652 Every watering the ph is 6.6
This is what I get by "not checking ph"
or giving them a ph they cant handle, in this case 8.5 water,
My plants do not tolerate a wacked out ph water. It is very important.
