Noobie Problems.

As a noobie, we tend to experience many problems and may annoy other people But sometimes we encounter a problem that we don't know how to fix so we ask you guys, the professionals. And here I am today, Asking what happened here.

Ever since my girl got injured I've thrown her under 24hr light for the past 3 days, (alongside my seedling) since 24hr light boosts leaf growth and 18/6 seems to boost root growth.

But the question here is what happened here?
(I think it's because I haven't sprayed the leafs with water?)
The tips of the plants seem to look somewhat burnt, and there's like dots in the leafs.
The pot seems to be heavy from when I watered it about 1 or 2 weeks ago (perlite cocoa mix)
Should I let her be? What's your guys opinion?
(I'm getting autoflower soon- gonna start a grow diary) (sorry for the bad quality pictures D: )

Coco should be fed everyday sometimes multiple times a day
When it dries out the ec rises in the root mass and causes burn lockout

So imo it's either feeding to strong causing nutrient burn or lockout or
Not watering regular enough causing ec to rise in medium and causing burn or lockout

If you say she is not drinking from the pot then for sure she is locked out

I would flush the plants with plain PhD water until the ec/ppm is in acceptable range and start low on the nutes untill improvement shows (new nice growth) then slowly up the feed strength.

I bet if you test the ph of runoff it's way low and ppm/ec is way high

Indicating the above

Does your pot have drain holes? I can't imagine coco/perlite holding water for two weeks.

It does seem like the plants growth is frozen/extremely slow/ no leaf stretch/minimal stretch

Yes, it has holes on the bottom of the pot, I haven't had this issue before until I let my mate look after it, causing damage (look at my other thread) I panicked and probably accidentally over nuted it.
