my assessment is you are killing your plants with ph

ph needs to be down around 5.5

you need to keep the ph between 5.5-6.2

this is hydroponics

also there is no reason why there should be 700ppm of nutes in one of the buckets

there is something going on that isn't good

check and recheck everything

make sure you keep parameters set..

hand feed each plant 2-3x a day with about 1/4 cup nutes each time

next time you pop seeds

a good idea is to wait till the seedling has many roots popping out of the root plug before transplanting into the final home

it is much easier to regulate the growth of the seedling in a tray under a fluorescent bulb than it is in a hydro bucket

again this is just my opinion

pH right now around seven is not going to kill them, they do not need nutes right now. I do agree they should be under a humidity dome with no nutes at all yet. I also agree on proper pH, it's just not that critical at 7 .
We are trying to help you.
This is your first run and we all want to see you do well.
If not try again.
When I first started I killed all kinds of plants. Never give up and keep learning.
If you have bag seed try running them first . Get the hang of it

Remember folks, my meters weren’t right AND that likely caused me to make mistakes
We are not picking on you .
Your pH is not the problem.
Everyone of us started where you are at.
Anyone who tells you they haven't screwed something up is a liar,
It is figured even very good growers will still screw up at least 1 in ten grows.
Do not get discouraged your patience and hard work be rewarded .

Get an EC meter, PPM is deceptive, I can chuck a cup of urea in your bucket of ferts and your ppm meter won't show shit.

And again, if i get that water and nutes straightened out this weekend, hopefully it will help
Please listen to me .
I m one of the few on here that can get 6 plus pounds a 1000 watt lamp.
No problem and sometimes 8 depending on strain. I an pretty good. If you want to see some proof you can see a few pictures I posted on drtomb grow journal.
They do not need food yet.
Get them under soft light for a week or two and let them get three or four inches tall . Then hit them with light Cal mag for feed. 1 or 2 ml a gallon is all , let them get a few nodes then feed them , just a little.

I agree with everything except the dome, I’ve found the dome is not needed as long as there are roots, I find a dome after rooted makes for a to humid environment IMO.

The dome helps them get a start. Then remove them to a light lite , and let them become ajisted a little to lower humidity levels then a little more lite and then a little food.
For my clones I refer to it as pre veg coming out of the cloning station .
I know these are seeds but still delicate until they get a couple of nodes.

this is a really strange post
someone begging a newbie to follow their directions with a claimed 6# per 1k
then stating ph of 7 is ok in hydro and that the plants dont need food yet

just odd

instead of being on these boards you should be in the midst of writing "the art of 3.6g per watt"

I would love to know these secrets

we are talking cannabis right? Not tomatoes

I mean no disrespect
but when someone claiming to pull 6-8# per 1k on these forums show up.....my nose starts to bleed from the stank

just sayin

Go look I just told you where to see the pictures.
I get 4 lbs a pull out of strains like Tahoe.
It's only 2 grams a watt. , Damn it's not that hard if you do it right. 4 grams a watt is very doable with the right strain under a 1000 gavita.

A pH of seven is not going to hurt your plant or a seedling. It's not ideal for hydro. A plant will not suffer at a pH of 5.4
Or even five so long as it does not stay at that pH.
Plants grow in a pH of seven all the time outside in dirt right?
The reason you guys can not go hrdlwy over a gram a watt is you are growing for surface area only in a scrog and not depth
A 1000 watt will penetrate three ft deep into a plant and most growers only here are only getting six to eight inches penetration because the canopy is to thick.
I am not dick unless forced or prodded into being one.
I am here hanging out trying to help people.
This new grower needs some help
Are we not here to help one another and learn from one another ? It's not who has a biggest dick contest unless we want to turn it into one and yeah I can help you reach two grams a watt and will show you how to do it if you want.
Go look at drtomb grow I am helping him now. But his conditions and plants are not set up completely to reach that point but he will do good.
You will find drawing on his 6 1000 watt Coco grow journal .
If you want to follow along I will show anyone who wants how to reach 2 grams a watt
