The closest I've come to seeing similar foliage on seedlings I've grown has been when I over fertilized on one occasion and used Coconut Coir as seed starting media on another occasion. Unless Coconut Coir is properly buffered it can harbor high salt content, which I understand must be buffered rather than rinsed out.In both cases I was able to salvage some of the seedlings by unpotting them and rinsing them before replanting them into fresh media of different composition.
I strongly suspect your plants were exposed to some sort of nutritional imbalance. Another possibility might be light deprivation during the earlier phases of germination.
