Girl Scout Cookies struggling

I planted this Girl Scout Cookies almost a month ago . It's just not healthy and not growing. I've looked at possible causes including PH, temperature, contamination by something and I just don't know.

Any ideas?

First off, I'm male.

Secondly, the only thing I don't see in that list is my setup . It's deep water hydro. I'm growing in a tent in 5-gallon buckets. My lights are a pair of 250 watt LED's. Fertilizer is Fox Farms, but this plant has no visible roots and is certainly not ready to be fed. I also supplement with Great White and CalMag. Neither of these have been applied yet because, as I said, no roots yet.

If you check my, admittedly feminine, user name, you'll see that this is not my first grow. But I've never run into a plant that's stunted in quite this way.
 
Ok bro, I'm your sis, so now we know that.

What's your pH been? You haven't fed her anything and she's a month old? I grow just like you do, in a rapid rooter & leca in hydro. She looks dried out.

The information in the link I attached in my first response is what we ask of everyone when they ask for help w/ struggling plant.
 
Put it in a cloning tray for a few days with water in the bottom and very light nutrients. Should stimulate the roots and get them going maybe. Once the roots hit the nutrient water they should almost explode within a few days, very similar to how they grow in DWC. That's what I would do
 
I hate to throw away something living. It looks to be be over watered to me. Could you try to transplant the seedling into soil or a coco soil and just keep it very humid in its growing environment (like a clear, transparent covering or something, cup over it) and see if it lives? If it grows, the transplant it into your hydro grow. It looks like it is trying its best but something is not optimum for its growth.
 
I’d stick with it, like others have mentioned get the humidity up until it starts growing. I have a couple close to harvest that started off as mutated looking runts but since I paid $55 for a 5 pack I waited them out. They’re both less than 20” tall but between the two plants they produced 14 colas covered in dank bud.
 
Yes, what bboyfromwayback said. And others. Give it a grow. It's small enough that you can probably find a little light for it. If you're not showing roots, are you able to split the block it's in and look to see what's developed? Something has to be there or you wouldn't have what you have.
 
It seems to me that your stem is not doing well. It looks soggy and brown. Usually when I see something like this it is the result of fungus issues or a overly fertilized planting medium preventing the tap root from branching. I hope you get this figured out.
