got a fan blowing on them?
looks like wind or light damage (like water droplet/burning)
still wouldn't worry about them.

Yeah its a pretty big wind tunnel fan. only way I can keep it cool for now.
I feel a sigh of relief but it just looks really ugly and the leaves are getting crusty.. I keep the light atleast a foot away maybe 16 inches. They do get perky which makes me happy but this discoloration just makes me worry but I will listen to you all. maybe update in a day or two. thanks man

If the wind is really strong on them they can dry out with windburn and crusty leaves hint of nute burn too.
It's a lot easier when I can walk into the room and observe the plants face to leaf.
I just had another look at the last two pics and it still looks more like damage caused by water on the leaves than nute burn or any deficiency I've seen and I've seen lots.

For my little seedlings I have a 4" computer fan hooked to a variable voltage wall-wart so I can have it gently waft air across them and keep the heat from the CFLs from building up around them. When they first come up I flick them around with my finger to toughen up the stems. A strong wind that whips them around does that but when it's directed steady at them can dry them out causing wind burn. An oscillating fan is much better but try to find small ones.
You want air circulating around their space so direct a strong fan against the wall so it's not aimed right at the plants.

Ive always had the impression that wind no matter what would make your stems stronger. i have to keep the fan on the plants or the light will burn them so I think i might have to look for another fan or just get myself that inline fan asap and use the fans just for air circulation in the tent.. never knew there was such thing as wind burn so now I kinda see it and understand. never knew that its pretty cool
