Deformed plant and weird spot

He's talking about how the edges of a leaf become raised in response to either too much heat, or I've also heard that improper humidity can cause it or at least make it worse. Do you have air flow going over the canopy? Pics without the LED light on would be a great help, can't distinguish colors very well with LED's. I'd agree with HotRodHarley on the heat stress, looks like the big fan leave is folding inwards and 'tacoeing' like heat stress tends to cause.
 
I got an infine fan on the bottom blowing fresh air in and a circulating fan a little higher than where the lights are. And a inline fan on top sucking air out the tent. My humidity has been around 32%, can’t seem to raise it even with the infine fan/carbon filter turned off. Can’t get pics cause I won’t be home for a bit.

Sounds like you need an oscliating fan blowing between your light and the tops of your plants. Even in perfectly fine temps, artificial lights tend to create hot spots where the temp is far higher than the surrounding area. Which is likely why you're seeing heat stress at 75F. That's my best guess at it anyways. :)

Thanks I’ll try that. My second plant is all droopy too I’m guessing from the heat because the watering is fine.
 
Thanks imma try and get that air flow better. Any tips on getting my humidity up? I tried placing water in the tent but it didn’t do shit.

watering is fine.....? how can watering be fine when you have a small plant in a huge pot? that plant belongs in a solo cup if not .5 gallon pot not a 5g pot. You will be battling over water issues the entire grow. I suggest next time, start in solo cups, once root bound 1 gallon, than 3 gallon and into final 5 gallon for flowering. if its a auto flower start a solo cup, than 1 gallon than go to final pot. There is no issues transplanting an auto flower if done right. Transplanting to and from those smart pots is difficult, I would suggest you use plastic pots until final pot than use a smart pot for final 5 gallon.

good luck.
