If you snapped the long, main, tap root that was coming out, it's gonna have to go through hell and high water recovering. It's either that or your PPMs are too high. DWC vegging at that small needs no more than 200PPMs. Probably closer to 100.

P.s. get some WHITE LED light in there. Not just blue. That blue is POUNDING INTENSE wavelengths of light down onto that tiny thing. Also, use maybe 1-3 bulbs. Not 9.
Once it's 4-6" tall you can use em all.

Make sure you change that water weekly at first. Once the roots get big, it's hard to even keep it full they drink up so much.
