Severely deformed seedlings?

Okay so out of 9 newbies, 2 of them are growing severely deformed. Does anyone have any suggestions on why this might be occurring? Seeds are just random bagseeds. I'm on my 4th grow and am using same seeds as previous grows yet I have never seen this. The soil is miracle grow mixed with perlite which I have had no problems with. Could this just be a genetic mutation and should I continue to grow them or should I yank them?

Probably your looking at the genetics which is causing that.. Just gone through same thing here..Be patient, It will probably end up ok.. dont do anything drastic at this stage,.. try to insure a female..( less stress is better)...

looks like nitrogen toxicity to me.

miracle gro organic, can be good soil, but ive noticed that there mix is not very consistent, ive got batches that were alot 'hotter' than some, and to me, that kinda appears to be what your dealing with.
avoid overwatering and high temps, and when your ready to transplant, increase your perlite/soil ratio 40/60 is a good mix. the babies will grow, but if you get to overwatering its going to cause you issues big time.
just let them do there thing...
 
I had the same problem and I just let my seedling go even though it was really contorted I just let it grow and it finally just got normal and grew to be a great plant yours should straiten them selves out so just be patient.
