Sprouts with nute burn even worth it?

My first grow, I had a lot of regular seeds from over the years in a medicinal state. Main batch is in my DWC setup, not worried about them.

Just for kicks, and in case I get too many males, I decided to germinate a few more and in a different way. I dipped 5 rockwool cubes into some nute solution I pulled out of my res, placed 5 dry seeds in and 3 have sprouted in the past week. They clearly have nute burn, the most advanced has yellow embryonic leaves.

I will have a few sites available in my DWC setup so the roots could be taken care of if the plants are worth keeping. If I leave them alone and under light, will they recover?

Seeds are suppose to be grown with absolutely no nutrients until after the first week. This varys a little with each plant, but the seed itself usually contains all the nutrients the plant needs in the first week. I would say don't bother with them, burning them that early in can cause some pretty serious problems unless you have plenty of experience to fall back on.

Also, just so you know, DWC systems make plants EXPLODE in size so make sure you have a big enough grow area.
