Noticed about a week ago the tips were turning whitish.
Seems to be spreading.
Only thing I can find about “white leaves” is from mold.
Doesn’t come off just discoloration.
Have other plants going in same soil, fertilizer, etc, no problems at this time.

That looks like light burn to me. Did you get a bright new light? Seedlings are usually dialed down to 40-50% if you run them under the flowering light and not a smaller cloner/seedling light. Or raise it up some if it’s right on top of the seedlings.
They were started under lights and looked good.
They have been outside for a couple of weeks.
Noticed it starting a couple of days ago.
Have others and all look OK.
Did it get cold at night? Frosty maybe? Or full on sun? I usually give them a part shady spot the first week they go out. Harden them off to the sun.
I don’t think it’s a deficiency, it looks environmental. I would say it will grow right thru it. The new leaves look like they are less effected either way.

A few nights have been cold (40’s)but I put a large mason jar over them at night. Helps a bit.
It does get full sun for a few hours.
Maybe this strain is susceptible to conditions the others can tolerate?
I hope it starts growing normally but not going to wait to long.
Have a couple of back up replacements started.

If you wipe it does it come off if so it may be wpm
Nothing rubs off. The leaves are white.
It looks to be signs of frost/cold damage. This can easily happen when the plants are at a very young age and more easily venerable to the elements of Mother Nature.
A large mature plant can withstand 40s a lot better than a young one.
Those parts of the leaves are virtually dead. I personally would cut them off. Forcing alittle more energy to the roots for the next few days.
I jumped the gun a few years ago. Putting our girls out in the outside garden a few weeks too soon. A nasty snow storm came in so the only way I could protect them was kinda the same thing. He next morning we got 18inches of snow. All the plants serviced!

Looked like it might start growing OK. Making nice leaves but growing very slow, about half as much as others.
Then this morning it was just laying over flat. Something happened with the stem.
Have it propped up to see if it will recover.
No idea what happened.
Are there any conditions that could cause an issue with the stem to just give out??
