If I were you, I'd forget about that weird-looking leaf, and concentrate on fixing the deficiencies/damage, because it's on the road to disaster, atm. Any idea what caused it? Happy Frog is a great soil for growing, and isn't too 'hot' for the little one's. Plus, being that you PH'ed your water, I don't have any ideas, as to what your problem could be. Not yet, anyway. Hmm....

deficiency's/over nuting. npk ratios
seedlings dont require much and can be sensitive to new soils. a deficiency is unlikely being plant is so young, not too familiar with happy frog tho.
what kind of ph test?
what are you using to lower/raise ph?
how much ppm is base water?
heat or humidity may be off.
how close are lights?
room temps?
is air being exchanged?

^Fox Farm's Happy Frog, is basically, a milder version of Ocean Forest(which can burn some sensitive strains, I've been told). It isn't capable or burning plants, as far as I seen.(unless he got a bad batch) I use it, and love it.
P.S. I like the 'hard water idea'. It's a possibility, for sure.

whats up jawbrodt, long time no talk eh? yes hardwater is a bitch in some parts of the world. my base water is around 170ppm. i use ocean forest for seedlings with no ill effects.^Fox Farm's Happy Frog, is basically, a milder version of Ocean Forest(which can burn some sensitive strains, I've been told).

^No doubt.lol Hey, I just checked out your grow, and they look great. Excellent job. Are those plants you have vegging, from cutting that were taken during flowering? Judging by the crazy branching, that'd be my guess. I'm going to start doing that, myself, if I can get the timing just right. That can be tough, when growing perpetual, but I think the adjustment can be made. *scratches chin*
I just flipped these to 12/12, on the 24th.....

beautiful plants my friend, what strain? the outdoors that are BUDDING were put into flower, revegged, and then reflowered. not sure which ones you are talking about? i only have a few seedlings, a bubba kush and a deep purple (dwc) vegging. possibly you were deep in the thread?^No doubt.lol Hey, I just checked out your grow, and they look great.

maybe the perlite had ferts in it? happy frog never burnt any of my seedlings. i consider it a pretty mild soil. my current crop showed n def before 2 weeks in the happy frog. some perlite has ferts in it or maybe the ph is just way off.

There are 3 strains. The 5 compact, bushier plants, are Ice.(some untrained, some not) Those two that are next two each other, sorta crazy-looking, with sativa-like, dark green leaves, are Crystal clones that I've had for about 10 months. To the left of those, is the one Rocklock freebie I got from Attitude. It's taller than the rest, but looks like I should turn out pretty good. Here's the thread..... https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/357232-nirvanas-ice-dnas-rocklock-soil-4.html
The plant I was referring to, is on the last page, at the top, pictured in someone's quote. It looks quite branchy, and I can't tell if it's been trained, which is why I asked.
I have a passive intake with an exhaust fan, cooltube is vented direct pass through. I am using RO/DI water, I us pH up and pH down for adjusting. I will be using Jack's Classic nutes. I was planning on starting with my next watering at 1/4 strength. The perlite I used does not have any nutes in it. Temps. are high of 83 and low of 72, but mainly runs about 79, I leave the doors open. Top is about 9" under the light.

you using a ph pen or a ph solution color chart? 9" is real close for a baby. My plants are about to finish flowering and on average are about 10" away, this is a 400 hps tho.
