If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. If you can't stand the nutes,...get out of the pot?
I figured I'd share some pics so you all can see some close ups of what it looks like. Sorry only the first one came out super clear.

Note: too much heat and light burn seem to present similarly. I originally tried to cool it down (was 80F) and then tried moving the light farther away (LED) before I fed them a little more and the minor tip burn you see in the first picture spread to be half the leaf (light brown/yellow but not necessarily BURNED yet.) I then checked PPM and was reading 450. Flushed and the res read 325.

Some minor tip burn on plant 1

Some yellowing of plant 2

Plants 1 and 2 the morning after flush (Note: This is after I fed them more and I kid you not a few hours later they looked much worse than in the below pictures. They are recovering, still some discoloration but the leaves have perked right up.

Similar thing happened to me. The general consensus was this is too early to feed. They only need water still. Just make the PH is being adjusted according to your medium and stick with water only for probably another week or so. You have your 1st real leaf and your 2nd leaf is just starting. Wait until you your 3rd set of leaves is grown and then start feeding *lightly*.
