So first of all I am color blind and it is hard for me to tell slight variations from plant to plant but I noticed one definitely looks different and has some spotting. What do you guys think/recommend. I am using happy frog soil and have not introduced any fertilizers yet. Also I have 2 100w light bars for now

If you look closely you can see it on several leaves actually when zooming in. Weird lighter colored spots.
Will be following seeing i'm curious what it could be as well.

Plants pretty green so not likely deficient unless it's calcium but early for that to be deficient, especially in foxfarm. Looks like a slight burn so that's likely calcium, light burn, or not enough fluids through the root zone. It's best to let them get nice and dry then saturate the pot and then put a good amount of fluids through to wash wastes out of the root zone. You planning on adding nutes soon?
I have nutes but honestly don't know when to add them, i hear happy frog has quite a bit and was probably just gonna look out for a deficiency and add notes when I see them start to happen. Is that the right way?

Happy frog is good for about a month of vigorous growth.

What kinda nutes are you using? Organic or synthetic?
If you use organic i would start before seeing a deficiency seeing organic nutes take time to realease before the plant is able to use them.
How does it look now btw? Any improvements since monday?

I think @Hollatchaboy is right and just add water for the first month. If she starts to get lime green then it's low on nitrogen which is what usually shows up first in veg. @GrowingAbroad is right too, organic takes time for the processes to start although fish emulsion and blood meal mixed into water are good.
