You might wanna consider posting pictures if you can. Just to make sure if it is a nutrient burn going on. Also a good idea to mention the specs of your grow i.3 soil or hydro etc. Generally speaking if you have a nutrient burn you would flush with water to leach your medium to flush out toxicity and to prevent a anion/cation lock. Then you would introduce nutrients at 1/4 strength.

NOT NUTE BURN!!! don't wash...CalMag shortage......add a calmag product at like 5ml per gallon of feed AND drop the distilled water. If you have to use a bottled water use spring water,,,best yet use RO.. Distilling "damages" the water.....
Lower "starter" leaves die away naturally and that looks just that way, except for the calmag def.
recipe for success kit ,, That will work out ok,,,,just remember to feed one day then clear water the next and so on.
By the leaves it's throwing. I would start feeding NOW at 1/4 strength nutes w/calmag and increase to 1/2 in a week and increase by1/4 a week till full strength....
Those appear to be a nice Indica and they tend to be quite tolerant of feeding. So get going and.....
Good luck!

I agree with Dr Who....You typically dont see yellowing of the leaf with nut burn like yours is showing....nute burn ..the leaf usually stays somewhat green but it burns...drys to an extent staying green and curling. I do not feed nutes this early in the game. I start my seeds in Happy frog all the time and take my plants all the way to about 8 to 10 inches....5 to 7 nodes, transplanting once from a beer cup into a 1 gallon container...never using any nutes....the HF has enough to keep them happy at least until that stage. Feeding comes in later and ALWAYS in low amounts to start.....I dont know why people think that they got to feed them right away...Happy frog or ocean forest soil has enough food for your plants to get you into the veg stage sometimes only showing slight N deficencies at about 8 to 10 nodes. The plant still looks good and it will bounce back. I also recommend keeping your plants in dixy cups for about 15 to 18 days after they have popped...by then the root system will have pretty much filled the cup and its a good idea to transplant in steps...not increasing container size to much so that you can build the root system in steps....going into to large of a container to soon can slow down the root production and thus make for weak root mass....affecting overall performance of your baby. Food for thought!!
