I just transplanted my plants and they're starting to turn orange. I have used no nutes yet so it can't be nute burn. Could it just be stress from transplanting or something? DSCF0369.jpg

if I had to guess I would say heat stress.. ph issues... or perhaps calcium def. dolomite lime would fix 2 of those issues

CFLs, fox farm soil, and I let tap water sit out for 24 hours. Temps I don't know but between the CFLs and osculating fan I can't imagine it gets too terribly hot in there.

As I just had the exact same thing with some of my seed starts, I'm going to second ILikePotAlot's guess - almost positive it's light burn from water on the leaf. I knew better, too, was just in a hurry. All in all, if it stays isolated and doesn't show up on new growth when you're paying attention and making sure not to leave water on the leaves, you're probably out of the woods.

It's not spreading so you guys must be right about light burn. The soil wasn't as dry as I thought it was and when I transplanted I got some on top of the plant and just brushed it off and didn't think anything of it but it must have left some water on it. Glad to see I didn't kill them I'll be more careful next time. Thanks for the replies.
