This is the only plant beginning to have problems out of 24 plants. The plant leaves seem dry with brown/ yellowish spots. I watered pretty well two days ago and the soil is still a little moist. Sorry for the bad pic.

The edges of the leaves are yellow which is weird because that typically means theres too much nutrients in the medium and you say you're not using any. One thing I do notice is that the edges of your leaves are pointing up too much which means your plants need water. I would try to water them a little more first and see how much that helps. Are there any red stems one the plant because that would mean your plants need nutrients bad. Check this plant problem shooter out:

look's over-watered make sure that potter is draining well.the other option of course is over-fed...but with no nute's thats unlikely.When your plants are thirsty they droop...NOT curl up at the edge's.Also double check your PH meter too make sure it's not lying to you.

Well some of them looked really dry on their leafs and beigin to get this curl effect. I am going to use a spray bottle and put some water on the leafs to give them a little moisture. I might be able to get some nice pictures here soon.

This may or may not have anything to do with it, especially since you're only a couple weeks into growth, but if you plan to continue using distilled water or water treated with reverse osmosis, you need to supplement for the calcium, magnesium, and iron that the plants won't be getting which is normally found in tap water. Look either in hydro stores or on the internet for a product called Cal-Mag Plus, it'll take care of all those needs for you.
