A little yellowing is normal for an already stressed clone.
Pics?

I would cut the amount of light intensity back a whole bunch until they are definitely rooted.The yellowing is the plants struggling to survive,they cannibalize them selves to survive untill they have roots,that would be your yellowing.

Can be true, but without pics, it's hard to tell. I have clones under 8000watts (MH & HPS). Just 4ft above and partially shaded by their sibblings.

You need to water everyday with nutes, or put those bags in an ebb and flow set up. Basically you're doing a hydroponic grow. Coco won't hold the water like soil. You'll need the ever popular cal/mag with Coco as well. Search some (Coco) forums.

Edit: Just looked back and saw you're not in bags...

PPM meter is a tool a grower must use in his growing system...the baby plants will not like full power feedings.The ph reading is important as well...6.5 for soil.
The coco has what nutes in it?
