Asymmetrical Cotyledon Development

Hello everybody, I apologize if I am not supposed to post this here. I've been having this issue where I have asymmetrical/under developed cotyledons. This is this second seedling in a row to do this, and now I'm wondering if it is grower error? Could this just be bad genetics, and will it mean an early grave for the plant? Tried to be as self-sufficient as possible but it's extremely difficult to find anybody with this problem. Any help is super appreciated, cheers! (low humidity is from removing humidity dome, usually sitting around 77%)

Could be genetic, could be other things. As long as you notice them growing out of this, there shouldn't be any negative effects. Sometimes plants tend to start off a little wonky looking with mutant leaves etc but grow out of it. Don't worry about it.
 
How are the first true leaves?

While it's true that a grower can say they did their best if the seed leaves are still there after the second set of true leaves, I wouldn't worry too much as long as healthy plant development happens.

That's my opinion.

I have seen genetics where one seed leaf is very large and the other is small. I'm not sure what the cause was. Plats grew fine.
 
Thanks everybody for the replies! Eventually the other cotyledon fell, as this is my first grow I was worried it would impede/block growth of the true leaves, but no problems!
 
Maybe from the dome over the seedling?
Domes are for clones

That is interesting, I can see that being the case. It is odd to me that a plant evolving for millions of years suddenly requires humans to put plastic over it, cuttings on the other hand, make sense.
