What could cause this?

my baby is about 13 days old and its starting to turn golden on the very top of it, idk wat could cause this cuz its not the lamps. ANYONE KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON!?!?!?!

looks like burn to me. what type of light you got on it?

ive got 5 cfls, 3 of them are warm26w 1750lumens each, and 2 white 1500lumens

Did you touch the root with anything but sterilized tweezers after it sprouted?...Looks like root damage or nute burn if you are feeding...

More info.............

of course i touched them, i have to see wat is goin on with them. ive touched all of my plants and they were fine, this one just idk...i cant explain it, it just started turning gold. it may be nut burn, but its hard to tell

r u feeding it?, what type of soil are you using?

no i didnt feed it, i just waterd it, im using expert gardening soil, feeds up to 3 months. but i killed it, so nvm about the problem, altho id like to know wat caused it so i dont do it with my other plants

Since it's pre-fert soil, u maybe overwatered it as a seedling to cause some burn.

That seems like a helluva lot of light for seedling...I use floro on seedlings until they get some real leaf production and I can put it really close which keeps it from stretching like yours are.....I think its heat burn...but if the rest are baking under that light and they are okay I guess its not heat burn..

I think its a heat burn too... I've watered my plants during the heat of the day... BAD IDEA! It frys the leaves. the water just magnifies it like a mf..

well ive calculated the lumens, and it is 8250lumens. they are cfls so i mean, idnt think its heat burn, i keep the temp in the room about 70-84 , sometimes a little hotter like 87. but i always lower the temp when it gets above about 83.

it doesnt matter what the temp is if that light is too much and I think it is for a baby then it will burn it period.....one cfl per baby...I wouldnt move to a cfl until they are several weeks old.....
