Okay, it's not heat stress. But that underlip curl at the edges resembles it. Yeah, you're overwatering then. Determine a spray interval schedule that gives them dry, breathe time.

What would be a good starting point I don't have a recycle timer 15 on 45 off?

Thats what I was starting to wonder. What are your rez remps? If above 75, then try freezing a couple of 20oz soda bottles filled w/water and put in rez. That way you can always have one in rez and one in freezer.

23$ cycle timer that works great for aero, I have several myself and have yet to have one die. Really makes a difference
in my plants vigor when running a timer vs over watering.

the bulk of that little plant is still in that rockwool cube, and you're saturating the shit out of it. let it dry out a bit so the roots can grow

That rockwool cube is WAY oversaturated. Looks overwatered to me. Unless you have significant roots popping out of the bottom, the cube looks too wet to me. How many gallons/liters is your rez? If your adding 5ml of both per gallon, then I would think that would be a bit too hot for such a young plant. Listen to Lordjin, gotta let those cubes dry out a bit. You will def end up w surface algae, or a dead plant, at that moisture rate. Been there, done that!

I have five gallon of water in the res, just 5 ml of each nute not 5 ml per gallon, I set the timer last night to 15 on an hour off and a lot of the wilt has come out but not totally ph is held a steady 6.0 all night ordered a timer last night but won't be here till next week so gotta find a time thats in the ballpark
