So I just gor the clones yesterday. I got 12, and 2 of them are the exact same looking. I put a raised up clear plastic bowl over the top of them to keep some humidity in, but I dont know what the problem is. It's pissing me off!

Im no expert but with new clones id put the light a lot higher for a week so they get hardened to it'.. then lower it down' or even lower it a little day by day over a week period till its about 60 70 cm away...

sounds like a humidity issue to me. If they are brand new clones then they likely dont have roots yet. They need no light for the first few days, nothing but water and finally high humidity. The easiest way to deal with this right here and now is to get some clear plastic cling wrap and wrap it loosely around the plants. I just stuck some 10" sticks into the outside of my pots, then clustered them together with 4 sticks on the outside edges of my cluster. Take the cling wrap and drape it across the top and along the sides, make a clear box that does not touch and allows for free movement of the leaves. That will trap more heat and humidity into the space around the leaves and should help to stand them back up. Within a couple days the stems should harden up some and the roots will start to develop. After a week you can remove the cover as humidity will be less of a factor at that point.

Only after they are standing again will they require light. Until then no light. Once they are standing you will want to move the light far away as possible and then gradually bring it closer over the next few days. Clones are very delicate and thus need very little light and water for the first week or so.
