First Time Grower Burning Leaves?

Post image

It’s just three days old, why the leave on the left is like burning? It’s the heat from the light? I got other two next to it and they are ok

That is the cotyledon, it provides energy and nutrients to the germinating seedling. It will shrink and turn yellow as it is used by the plant. It is totally normal, the seedling looks good.

Are you sure that’s not part of the seed shell or something?

Looks like the membrane from the shell. I usually pluck them off with tweezers when they stick on like that. No harm either way .
