sure
usually young clones feed off there leaves, i notice on the second pic one of your clones dried up, as long as they all dont look like that. they will have new grow and those old leaves will fall out.

Once clones are rooted, week 1, 1/4 strength, week 2, half strength, week 3, 3/4 strength, week 4 full strength. In DWC I rarely went over EC of 1.2. SInce the roots are almost permanently submerged in solution, they dont need a high EC. The curling you saw is nute burn. Also, I always ph'd to 5.5 and allowed this to drift up as high as 5.9 to give good coverage of all nutrient absorbsion levels. 1 drop superthrive per 4l of solution, EC of 500, ph in the 5.5/5.9 range. Do not trim damaged leaves, they may recover a little and in the meantime they are acting as solar panels absorbing light and photosynthesising. W

They're looking burnt up because of the transformation you have initiated. From a perfectly healthy plant you cut off a terminal section, put it in gel and rooted it. Some translocation of nutes and sugars is gonna happen and you'll lose some lower lvs. Normal. Cut the dead part off the leaf with scissors leaving the rest there for the plant to draw from. Most ppl have a 75% success rate anyway
