What is happening with this seedling?!

Granted I’m new to growing but this seedling looks like the maw of Cthulhu.

The first set of true leaves look like fleur-de-lis, and the next set looks like something out of HP Lovecraft.

What could possible be going on here!

I am having the worst luck getting started so I assume this’ll be a problem lol

Hot soil? pH issues (unlikely in good soil), environment? Or genetics.

Definitely not hot soil, it’s pro mix bx, ph tested at 6.5, temperature is between 69-76… low humidity but it was weird before leaving the humidity dome, so yeah I’m thinking genetics. But curious if it’s “interesting” genetics or just bad.. they’re regular seeds so part of me was thinking “is this just what a male seedling looks like”, but there’s just no way it’s that easy to identify so soon with people still getting blindsided by males.

Freaks/mutants can be the bomb, or a nightmare. Let it grow!
