What kind of soil you using? Nutes? How often do you water? How old is it? Feel free to fill in anything I missed asking.

Im using Miracle grow Moisture control, which i now realize is a mistake but it had a high nitrogen concentration but idk mayb its burning the plant, i have a self watering pot that i fill every few days when the top soil is dry. Also ive been using tap water, but today i switched to filtered water, not RO but better i think. the plant is probably a month and ahalf old mayb closer to two, but it was badly streched with poor lighting.

Looks like nute burn. Have you tried flushing the soil? Do you have a pH meter? It could also be a deficiency.. given the time... it should be bigger.

If your camera has a macro or super macro setting(mine's a flower icon). And you could get a non-blurry close-up of those big top leaves with the damage... I'd have a better idea.

How do u flush the soil? i was thinking about just buying new organic soil since it should be closer to 6.5 ph. I dont have the money for a ph meter. I have heard/read that Miracle grow has harsh synthetic chemicals that burn the plants. Also there are new leaves coming out of evry node. HELP!!
