something is wrong with my plant. it is three and a half weeks old two weeks ago i had some heat issues but it recovered. but now my bottom leaves are slowly still turning yellow and crispy looking and all leaves except tiny new ones have light blotches over it them with there tips turning yellow. i cant seem to see any spider mites. it is under a 2 foot strip of florescent lights about 6 inches above. pure blend pro premium organic 3-1.5-4 still on light mix strength seedlings.

Hydro setup there? Or what is your setup for growing, what lights etc. do you foliar feed? How is the water PH ?

Hard to tell whats wrong because of the water on the leaves, normally the 2 little leaves at the very bottom ( Called petioles) normally shrivel up and fall off.

Could be, or perhaps you did something wrong when germinating.

Do you know what your PH is? Those spots do look odd, if its spidermites you will know if you take a nice good look at the undersides of the leaves.

i recently upped my nutes and the new leaves are growing in darker green and spots are filling in. the bottom leaves are still yellowed though. i guess we will see what happens in the enxt few days.
