Anybody see this before?

Not only are the blades getting a yellow tint to them but the leaf on the side is starting to twist curl, anyone run into this problem? Any help would be much appreciated!

I would say the soil is too hot- seedlings feed off the cotyldons for the first few days up to a week.
They should be sprayed several times a day to water them.

Wouldn’t I have a problem with rest of them then as well? PH level is 6.5, I’m doing the nitrogen, potash, phosphorous test today, been racking my brain here the rest seem to be doing ok the temp is 77 degrees in the soil and I do water, I’m just afraid of overwatering

Looks like it is beginning on 2 others on the right side of the picture-
The 2 times in the life of the plant that are the most difficult to manage- seedlings and flowering
 
The one is the same one, just a different angle, but yeah I see the other one now, could it be light burn? I’ve been keeping the light 2 inches from plants just strange I have taller ones that are doing great don’t see how it would burn the smaller ones and not the taller ones

I'm not a soil grower, but It looks like one I sprouted in coco that was too hot, the first leaves were fried in a couple days. I flushed with a very weak nute solution and it bounced right back, minus 2 leaves.

What is the nute solution, sorry I’m a newbie here

Dont spray on the plants only the soil or the droplets can burn the leaves mate acts like a magnifying glass for the sunlight
When I see the water drop folklore, I feel compelled to respond.

It's an old-wives tale that a water drop on a leaf will act as a lens and focus the light like a magnifying glass.

The shape is wrong to focus light and water has a lot of thermal capacity.

Theoretically, if a hairy leaf can suspend a drop of water just above the leaf it could indeed focus light on the leaf surface.

If the water droplet as a lens theory was valid, my outdoor plants should be pockmarked with burn marks; it doesn't happen.

It's easy enough to confirm, simply spray some water on a plant in direct sunlight or intense LEDs and check for burning.

So, I did do a rapid soil test, phosphorous and potash were in range, but my nitrogen is depleted, I have a pack of raw nitrogen coming hoping this helps. Fingers crossed
If that test wasn't sent away and cheap I wouldn't trust it. Imo you have scorched tips.. to much nitrogen contrary to your test ID bet my bottom dollar on hot soil. Something isn't testing right what kind of soil you got and u shouldn't be feeding anything at this stage maximum 200ppm if your ininert dirt

Hot as in? Dry soil, or too much nutrients?
I use natural and organic seed starting mix with peat moss, coconut coir, vermiculite
Natural and organic are scary words doesn't mean cannabis friendly unless you really know what's in it like a cannabis friendly well known soil like fox farm or similar its hard to throw a perfect blend of soil together without ALOT of trial and error. I've never had issues from soil using foxfarm but I have had issues using maaaany other dirt and natural dirt not knowing about ph OF THE SOIL you might be PHing your liquids going in but the soils PH is the precedence holder and the liquid will adapt so for example in south florida lots of lime stone in the ground had no idea ot was gonna spike the soil up to 8.1 but Liv and learn .. black gold bad choice but good for other things...
I HIGHLY SUGGESY YOU GET A RAPID READY TEST 5.99 AMAZON SOIL REAGENT CAPSULE TEST..
ITS A LIL BREEN BOX WITH 5 GREEN CAPSULS ITS A REAGENT COLOR COMPARISON TEST ..IT WORKS GREAT FOR TESTING SOLIDS PH INFLUENCE ON SOIL... I went as far experimenting with this stuff and put our spagnum.. 5.0 back yard 8.1. .2ish fox farm perfect 6.5 black gold 7.2 no good ... it's addicting when you start going with it .. u get 5 tests out of a pack u can probably find in bulk other ways but it's a really good way to check your soil mix is even in range to allow your plant to be eating properly good starting point if your throwing a soil together to.see if your wasting your time or not.. bad soil will give you nothing but headaches and a bad harvest .. don't waste your time in bad dirt I've done it and WILL NEVER compromise dirt again fox farm happy Frog only for me takes one factor of negative checks against your final product
