It deff looks overwater !! You should get use to lifting your babies so you'll kno exactly if the soil is dry! Or just stick your finger Into the soil!

Looks like you have over watered your plant, always feel how heavy you plant pot is before watering it, If its heavy don't water it. If you plant pot is light, then you should water your plants.
I hope your plant grows!

I'm using OceanForest for soil in airpots under an LED light, in a small tent. Flora Nova is the nutes and I'm going by the directions for simple drain to waste for my measurements. One plant looks stellar and one looks like this! I appreciate your help cuz I read one blog and it says do this and then I read another that tells me to do the opposite, I'm so confused

Yeah, you rarely get consensus on these boards so just take everything as "possible leads" that you will need to research further.
FFOF is a pretty hot soil so it should give you plenty of nutes for first month your plant is in it. This makes me think you might have an over-feeding issue but I don't really see it in the leaf structure, your tips will usually bend down or hook right at the end and yours are just a gentle over-watered looking gentle arc. Your burned leaves have tips bent upward which is often heat stress. Did you have some heat stress issues a couple weeks ago?
Your issue is confusing to me too, so it seems like there could be more than one thing going on. Is your source water in a good ph range? I am guessing you have a lock-out issue from the color of your leafs and assumption that it would not be deficient of anything in FFOF soil this early. If it is a lockout issue it is either ph related (which I doubt unless your water is really wonky) or over-feeding of some particular element.

I did raise the LED about a foot higher about 2 weeks ago because I thought I was seeing a bit of heat stress. The seedlings were in the soil for about 3 weeks before I gave them nutes so I could have over done it a bit there. I use distilled water and it's ph is 7.

magnesium. go get some Epsom salts, folair spray the hell out of them and repot in decent soil, bigger pots.
No, I don't have a lot of run off.
