Hello people, i have this 10 day old Liberty Haze seedling in a 5 gallon DWC setup.

ever since the first true leaves sprouted its had this little brown spots on the edges and im noticing some mild decoloration throughout the leaves too... otherwise it seems to be growing quite well, but it hasn't popped any roots through the pots yet.

TEMP: 73-75F
HUMIDITY: 55%
REZ TEMP: 63-65F
EC: .4 (~190 PPM) - Technaflora's boost , grow, magical, sugar daddy @ 1/10 strength
LIGHTS: 24/7 400W MH 2' away
PH: 5.6 - i usually aim at 5.5-5.7 adjust when it swings above 5.9

im growing 3 other strains and all the other ones seem to be good.. This one is actually growing pretty nicely and the second node is already coming in fast!!!! this spotting is just bothering me...

The water level is about 1/2" above the pot and there is a layer of hydroton below the RW cube but it still seems to be pretty damp no soggy.
i was thinking of lowering the water level when i had some roots dangling down in the water.

if anyone has any input id really apreaciate it! thanks in advance!

It don't look bad it may of just gotta wet with some nute water or whatever .
I'll put my seedlings under a MH 400 watter but not 24/7 till they're a little bigger
I'l give my like 400 watts for 4-6 hours a day then put'em back under the flo's that
are on 20/4 timer given some rest I find is just as fast or faster than the 24/7 my
babies are only 2 days old or I would show you for 10 days they're a little on the
small side...

No biggie ^^^ just signs of early ph fluctuations that are now under control...right?
i dont think theres ever been a ph problem tho...

i soaked the cubes in ph 5.5 water and put them in after they germinated... and ive always had the ph within the 5.5-6.1 range... its so weird i just hope this one dont grow to be a sickly plant...
