Is this after flushing/rinsing? To me it looks like you will get past the problem. The damaged leaves will not recover, but the new growth is trending toward normal. My call is that you lose some development time and perhaps see some stunted growth, but I think they'll live.:)
yea after just normal water rinse. no flushing solution....will the damaged leaves still photosynthesize? ive trimmed the worse looking ones off and the tips off of alot that were crunchy brittle....i left all that felt soft and wilted hoping they recovery to somewhat of a normal state...
If there is living tissue, they will keep photosynthesizing, but you'll have to make a trade-off between that and wasting the plant's resources trying to keep a sick and dying leaf alive. Mostly you just want to avoid the temptation to fix everything at once. That can provide additional stress. Take off any obviously dead, diseased or crunchy leaves, but then let it be for a few days before removing anything else.
cat so i did a test flush on one plant with half strength of the suggested dose...when i did this i put in a tray and allowed it to sit for a few minutes then took out of water, trashed excess, replaced her back on tray....my question is this (and ive posted a pictuer but i doubt youll see what im talking about) when i looked at water there was a film on water (the run off water) that looked almost like oil/gas on water...is this the build up washing out? ie the bad stuff?Attachment 297696
also wanted to show you guys how i have the clones setup from my buds main lady...he used clonex rooting gel, 2x2 rockwool cubes cubes soaked in distilled water...???... he followed jorge cervantes to a T i watched him do it....(see youtube video) in picture to follow is how they currently sit...4-2ft T5 bulbs about 5inches from the top of the humidorwhich sits about 8 inches from the tops of the clones..i know some are gunna say im bitting off to much but whatever i got some freetime and i like to read...and if it hadnt been for this one NOOB rookie, bullshit..slacking on my part move...id have some real good looking ones right now.....for someone edumacated and stuff...i feel real dumb i dont know why but i just always have that feeling like im doing something wrong now...my soul hurts for hurting these beauts

should light be a little closer?
Well, I'm not one to argue with Cervantes, but I would never jam a fresh cutting into distilled water and place it under anything remotely like a strong light. Distilled water is highly purified water. Water is a very strong and somewhat general solvent. It can dissolve a very wide array of compounds very efficiently. The more pure the water, the stronger the solvent effect. Think of a cutting like a delicate surgical procedure. The cutting needs to be protected from extreme conditions, so that it can concentrate on healing and growing. It has little in the way of defense. I soak my rockwool in slightly acidic, purified water with very very dilute nutes (1/50th strength), and once the cutting is in, I put it under a dome like you have there, but under very indirect light for at least the first week. On the other hand, some people have a lot of luck treating clones somewhat harshly and getting good results. From my experience cloning plants in general, every species and strain behaves differently, but stressing the thing right after it's been hacked off of it's Mother seems illogical to me. I would think about backing off the strong light, at least at first. The dome with the interior sprayed with water is good. Just be gentle. They are in distress until they form roots.
Just me, agree with whole plan, except found distilled water works best for me, and no nutes.
