Is this a sign of overwatering? I noticed this happend in the past couple of hours after I watered my plants.. the soil seemed pretty dry so not sure what's going on.

Plants are about 1 week old, medium is Pro-mix mixed with perlite, worm castings, and dolomite lime. They're under 4 4' shop fluoro's. No nutes as of yet. Humidity at around 50%. Temp at about 75F.

Are they too far gone?

This is my first grow 5x white Russian + 4x unknown its a D/W/C hydro setup with 3x 15 ltr buckets 3 plants in each.

seeds were started on 20/08 everything was ok until yesterday when i noticed curling on 3 plants all in different buckets ive uped a pic of the worst 1
the nuts im using are canna veg A-B
PPM of tap water - 8
PH of tap water -7

i added nuts and bought ppm upto 14 for all buckets after halving tap water PPM so actual nuts added 10 PPM
added PH down to get 5.6 for all buckets

im using HPS 400watt on 18/6

they have been in buckets for 2 days
as there were no roots showing through clay balls i watered the 1in rockwool cubes before adding to pots and bought water level in buckets upto 10 mil below pots
sorry if this is a long 1 but wanted to add everything as it could help lol
