Plant problems, please help!

Day 14
Blue Mystic
FFOF soil
water Ph set to 6.4
(3) 42w CFL's
Temp. 80 day/ 65 night
Light cycle 20/4

Foliage is very dark green almost grey. Older leaves are curling down on edges (not tips). Secondary growth is developing much quicker than primary growth (main stalk). Have done a ton of research but most consist of yellowing which I am not experiencing. Here's a pic, sorry about the quality its from my phone... but hope you guys can help. Thanks in advance.

I'm not very experienced, but from my knowledge that is an oddly growing plant lol. Your specs for your set up seem fine, how close are the cfls to the plant? and did you flush the soil before use?
 
my lights are about 3 inches from the plant, and I did flush the soil before use. I'm following seemore buds book if your familiar with that. thanks for the reply

i wouldnt worry. young plants can exhibit wierd traits early on. ffof is a good soil, no need to flush prior. just use ph of 6.5 -6.8 water and keep on keepin on. after a couple of weeks start adding light nutes and go from there.
 
thanks for the replies to everyone... makes me feel a bit better that it most likely is not a fatal problem. I've never had one grow like this lol! But as of today the growth is going crazy, she keeps on truckin so thats a good sign of course. The only thing im still worried about is that dark green almost greyish in some of the leaves, thinking it may be too much nitrogen(although I haven't added any nutes?) or possible heat stress(although my temp. never goes about 82). Any more help would be greatly appreciated!

Also forgot to mention, as of today I noticed in secondary growth 2/4 of my 3 fan leave sets only have 2 leaves?? My main set of 3 leaves is just starting to push out the other two... I dont get it, growth is backwards!
