Temps, PH, and some nutrients can all cause that donedolla. Are they slimy? Get some h202 while you're at the hydro store.

You can take clones once a branch has developed that has at leat 2 nodes (leaf sets). Have you read up on cloning? You may want to before you go to the store to make sure you get anything else you need (a heat mat is a great tool for cloning).

Totally different means to the same end dd. Rapid rooters are very simple to deal with and come pre-soaked with micro nutrients. I soak them in water PH'd to 5.8-6 with a drop or two of bloom nutrient. They have a precut hole to insert your cutting. Keep the humidity high and you should be fine. Gotta a good spray bottle for misting?

What are the temps at the canopy level? If they are 75 or less you can bring it down. Over 75 and you better get a(nother) fan on them when you lower it.

Get those temps down. Try to always keep it under 80F. Keep the fan on the same timer as the lights and have it blowing directly on the plants.

Sorry to hear that man. Maybe you should try a real straight forward soil grow to get you feet wet dd. It's tough to try to get to know the plant and all the hydro stuff at the same time.
