not likely light burn. Are you getting dew on your leaves? constant standing water on the plant would be bad for several reasons but still not the cause here.
i think the soil composition and watering habits are the cause. allow it to dry more between irrigations, if possible. Use more perlite or similar amendment with soil. up to about 1:1 ratio with soil will improve root zone before diminishing returns. over watering will be impossible. even if you try to irrigate a bit more frequently it'll avoid these sorts of blemishes, given common sense limitations.
this would reduce water capacity of your pot, which would mean you have to irrigate a bit more often throughout the grow - similar volume of overall use but more frequent applications. It's worth it and you can always re-assess the pot size you want to use to mitigate it too. Algebra is useful stuff
:P
