Seedlings not improving after a week.

I’m running blue dream, purple bubba kush, heavy grapefruit. Nutrients is drip hydro. Seedlings started off strong in rock wool cubes but once I started gently introducing them to nutrients it seems they are having a hard time. Last grow didn’t have any problems. Should I start giving them ph water to flush them out a bit? Temp is 73, humidity it 40-45%.

You should be feeding them from the top until the roots are well established in the reservoir.........they look bone dry.
Never use plain water in a dwc set up.
They have been getting fed from the top of the cube. It’s weird I did everything I did last grow, last grow was a success.
 
Side note, I'm pretty sure the res is supposed to be light tight, and I think I can see a sizable gap where light can get through.

I would recommend starting over and reading up on the DOs and DONTs of DWC.

Sounds good, I figured I butcher it this go around. This will be my second dwc grow. I think I just got luck last time. Has anyone used root riot cubes with success? And I will read up on the thread for DWC and see what all I have done wrong and adjust.
