They didn’t really have any roots when the guy brought them to me. Hoping i didn’t get ripped.

What temps and humidity?

They cant uptake those nutes without a decent root mass.
Try a decent rooting product and let them dry out a bit.

You just slowed the rooting process down by all those additives with no roots
They will probably root but will look even worse before they do

Nutrient use and “ not “ clipping the tips of the leaves will drastically slow things down. The point is to promote root growth, and this is a slow process as long as the leaves are still trying to use photosynthesis to grow. Cut the tips off the leaves and stop adding nutrients and you will see a quick turn around. Keep temps above 80 and Rh above 65% and you’ll be off to the races in no time.

At least their still standing, you need to nurse them back to health.
foliar feed mag at about 150-200 ppms once a day and keep the Water temps at 72-74.
keep the rez nutes at about 200-300 ppms. just the veg nutes without a bunch of additives. add a little kelp though.
Might even want to try to make humidity domes out of clear two liter pop bottles, or try that on a few for a week to see if it responds., let them breathe daily then ween off the dome if they respond positively, this ones iffy depending on if it has any decent roots or not. if they have decent roots no dome.
keep the light at the minimum, you need to slow the grow and let them recover.

I have had a similar experience before, looks like the plants are starting to fail from taking too long to root. How often are you watering them and when did you start them?
Here is a cheap cloner that actually works, I haven't had a clone fail rooting yet.

Its simple to use, I add clonex clone nutrients to the reservoir. Not sure if you even have to, you will have roots in a week. Everyone I have turned onto these cloners say they work better than high cost ones. The spray system is way better than other systems, drenching the stems equally.
Frey the sides of the stems that are buried or in the cloner, you will get faster rooting. If you don't do this, the stems often have to rot a little to start rooting and the plant takes damage from taking so long to root. I take scissors or a razor and frey down to the core of the stem and make a diagonal cut when taking the cutting.
