Yea the more I look the more I think it's a combo of problems and that soil looks pretty well saturated. Did you just water before the pic?
 
Only out about 10ml of nutes in the water so it knows what's happening it didn't get the whole container that was between 4 plants the others haven't got this problem

Sorry forgot to link pic
I say overwatering. Looks pretty clearly to be overwatering. Nute burn would involve dark leaves, curling, wilt, etc. This just looks like overwatering leaching away Phosphorus and Potassium.

How often do you water, and how much? Your root system isn't expansive enough to cope with whatever you are doing to water it, either frequency or volume. I say frequency, due to lack of leaf bloat.

I do water everyday that's where I think I'm going wrong need to slow down
Bingo. Nailed it. You are drowning your very new and pretty small root system. Every 3-5 days, bro. Probably every three, and not too much.

Jesus, dude, every day? Did you read even a little bit about how to water cannabis? Common but pretty basic mistake. No sweat, though, she'll recover.

thanks for that I'll be sure to slow the watering right down I don't know why I've been doing it every day just thinking because I give it small amounts each day but clearly not the other girls seem to be fine

She'll be fine. Just let her grow out, and switch your watering schedule to 3-5 days, likely 3, but there are other factors that might bring it to 5. Do this with the other girls, too, before it's too late. You'll probably need to add P, K, and Mg by 1.5-2 weeks in veg, which will be roughly what its age should be before its first feeding.

That probably explains why they have slowed growth a bit too

More than likely, yeah. The roots couldn't exchange gasses, because the plant was pretty much being waterboarded. Heh heh..

Don't feed it right now, because it's too early (unless you start seeing deficiencies, something other than overwatering symptoms) but I say you'll likely have to add Mg, P, and K because those nutrients are mobile in the soil and are easily leached (flushed) from the pot as water moves from rim to bottom, dragging those nutrients down the drain with it.

It should be around 1.5-2 weeks when you need to reconstitute those.
