pH is definitely a problem. Organic often reads much higher in PPM than what matters -- int his specific case, not everything can enter the plant, so the water that diffuses into the plant will have a lower ppm than what is in the soil -- this is not the case with "hydro" nutes that are 100% soluble and 100% plant-ready, therefore go into the plant fully and immediately as diffusion across semi permiable membrans of the roots occurs. 4.8 pH will lock out nutrients. it doesn't matter what kind of fertilizer you are using. now, soil pH readings are suspect to start. so that is also a consideration. any experience with this soil before and didn't measure these things? sometimes ingorance is bliss. running a bunch of ph-adjusted water through it will only waste your efforts of creating the soil - a lot of nutes will just go down the drain and never be used. so in future maybe find some amendments that help correct his low pH. water and let it simmer a bit to even out. Like adding garden lime i belive raises pH. This will provide a good amount of calcium too. possibly have to adjust anything else that adds Ca, if previous ratio/concentration of nutes was proper to start. mix some in, get it wet so it dissolves a bit, and it should cause pH to rise. can test with small sample of soil... work out ratio you want to add to large volume without ruining it. if you make amistake can just toss out teh small tester sample you used. so in regard to the ppm of the nutes.. it depends on many factors that are not given here. as far as the pH, if true, you definitely want to adjust that one way or another. 99% certain.

Reach out to the breeder and ask em what they think and they might offer to send you one if they feel its deformed. Also call your bank where you got it from and ask them if they think it looks normal. They might offer some insightful advice. To me its weird but I would still grow it. if it does not germinate most companies have a germination guarantee. The RQS rep is on this site. if you message them they might be able to help. Good Luck!

You have a calcium deficiency is what it looks like to me after reviewing your diary and feed. Feeding too strong as well, which might of caused a ph issue in substrate. I would check that as well.
