i think they're doing fine. maybe back off the nutes a bit. they really dont need much in the first few weeks.

I agree, that canoing shape of the leaves is the plant trying to conserve moisture.
temps never really get above 83, 40-60% humidity....

That is not a lot of airflow, and I would leave the fans on all the time.
And why are you using epson salts, you wouldn't need it this early even if you were using RO water, and you shouldn't really need it at all if your using tap water.
Anyway, as I said canoing shape of leaves is heat, the plants attempt to conserve moisture, and it's too early to be using those nutes.
Maybe your lights are just a little too close
Keep your fans on 24/7
Stop nutes until week 3 and then 1/4 strength
Good Luck.

83 is about 8 degrees too hot, which would make me agree with heat stress. U never, ever want ur indoor temps above 79, 75 is ideal. I see atleast ten people per day with pics like urs and they all argue that their temps are in the low 80's. Lower ur temps and watch ur plants come back to life.

What kind of light are you use'n?....I had a weaker plant that was doing the same thing and it was from my 600watt MH conv bulb being to intence for him, there was no heat prob just to much light.
When the prob first stated if looked like that at the end it was so bad the plant tuned its fan leaves side ways.....I pulled the light back and the prob was gone in one day....
