I got clones that were transplanted, they were green and everything looked good, a week later half of them are green and half of them are mainly yellow, I watered them everyday and didnt check my ph level (I think I overwatered them and now have a ph reader...) and its been clean water (no additives). My question is, do I add water to it with some addivites and hope it was a lack of nutrition or let it soak up the water and hope for the best? Thanks

They are clones I bought, so I dont know what type of soil it is, looks like regular indoor gardening soil...

and I dont have any pics right now, im not near it to take any. I didnt think about it at that time or I would have.

They need food.

Clones are mature copies and will want food as soon as rooted or they will fade out.
 
Twigs will freak a bit if the humidity was low in the dome. When it becomes a clone...it requires much more energy than it did just recently as it absorbed enough to survive. Now you're asking it to grow into an herb with beautiful greenage. This takes fuel! When it gets roots it will look for more intake as you demand more output.
*Begin this correction by verifying the last thing done, adjust as needed. Most beginners start with "It's a fucking miracle that it grows Monsanto", 1/4-1/3 for clones in they're first container. 1/2 - full in budding. Mine won't get nute unless leaves start yellowing in it's first pot. (They don't since I started adding egg shels and worm shit).

So I got canna start and was told to spray them twice a day and feed them once and a week later add an addictive to it (I have it, I don't remember what it's called, buts it's from canna also) also I got my ph under control also. My room is about 78 also, fans are on, lights are about 25 inches up (g8led 800) and have two co2 bags also (for right now), lights are on 24 hours also. Is there anything else I can do?
 
Hey there,

I had the same problem on my first grow which has been this year.
I grow outside in pots so it might be a little different then you.
Basically all they needed was there nutrients, I'm here in Australia
and all I use is a feed called Powerfeed which is organic along with a product called Seasol
every second water. I only watered once a week.
Everyday is to much, the soil on top down a inch needs to be pretty dry and then water.

They should come good, I even had one baby fall over and pretty much die and
now he's big and healthy.
