only worry if it effects new growth too man, I get stuff like this on younger plants, its just that they are so sensitive to nute ratios at that age. give it a week and I bet the new growth will look great.

makes sense but its so young waiting that long could actually kill her if it spreads to the other 4 leaves ill just repot it in different soil (crappier soil)

seriously don't do anything to it right now, it will shock the plant, just let it grow. sing to it, plants like it when you sing to them. it doesn't look like anything to be worried about. you should see my leaves that start splotching, looks like the plant has the black plague but a week later when the new growth develops it looks like a healthy, vigorous plant. it's common to get splotching early in a plants life

Your prob is that soil, its to hot for the lil sprouts. Id transplant them if you can, or there gonna just keep burning and they wont produce a healthy root mass.

hi dizzle, what do you mean by too hot ?

(the pots are in a very cool room to make up for the cfl heat )

I would think dizzle is referring to the added fertilizers in the soil.
Seedlings have nutrients for the first month or so and normally need no nutrients during this time.

Transplanting is probably a good approach, but don't stress over the issue. :wall:

Agreed... Yer soil must be too hot for the seedlings and young plants... Try a lighter mix with more perlite, peat moss, and non-nutrietive soil, until they get bigger, and become ready for transplant into a more nute-rich environment...

Well watering with 7.8 will bother some plants but not others...just like most things...so what might work for some plants won't always work for all...but I truly wouldn't worry about those spots...just make sure you aren't overwatering and that the soil you use has really good drainage.
