okay so i have 4 clones with roots poking out the bottom of my little cups but no growth on top!they have had roots poking at for about a week now.i chopped the clones about 3-4 weeks ago and they were chopped off when the plant was in 5th week of flower.temps are fine, i got 2 65watt cfls , humidity is good. i mist the plants twice a day "sometimes 3" and water the soil once every 7 days.i have not feed them nutrients yet althought im thinking i should ?i need help the leaves are slowly browing yellowing/ and curling upwards.

Don't rush things they are growing roots right now not leaves. The brown and yellow are from food being used up from the leaf. That's a good sign, No food yet give them another week or so then light dose of food. Taken fron a 5 week flowering plant will add time to the process as it needs to be reversed.

Peace

You said you did not feed right.

Chill, like I said taking clones from flowering plants is not the best way to clone to start with, first it thinks it's time to flower them you cut it off, shock sets in, than put it into veg more stress. Keep doing what your doing they will grow it will just take much longer. Regular clones in dirt take 9 to 18 days so hang in there. next time take clones before putting into flower.

Peace

Like was said above. they're putting down roots right now, just relax.....and quick spraying them all the time. Dont even spray them but a couple times total the 1st few days after cutting them. Give them a nice, warm, not hot, humid environment with low overhead light and they'll be fine. Once they start showing roots bring them out into the open under CFLs. Let em chill for a couple weeks and fill the cup....or whatever small container you have them in, with roots. Once they have a nice root system extending to the outside of the pot, transplant them into whatever size container you plan on finishing them in. Let them chill for a few more days under the CFLs and them harden them under your bigger lights. they should start showing lots of new growth in a few days. Just relax. If growing ganja teaches you anything it should be patients.

if they have roots coming out then pot them. it will take them a while to revert to vegetative growth before you start seeing growth. this is why you should take clones before you flip the switch

I always place a solo cup over my cuttlings for 24hours to reset light clock.. dunno if it works but I never have any delay and always take cuttlings in flower couple weeks in.

The moment i see roots. If i have space i transplant.

Keep in mind it can go the other way too. New growth no roots. Dont transplant those ones.

as above i took some clones from a diesel plant that was 3 weeks into flower, it took around 14 days to root, then i potted it and it sat there for another 2 weeks doing nothing, ( at least above soil) then it started producing some funny looking leaves all over the place, it done that for another couple of weeks, its only just started to grow upwards after 7-8 weeks, i will never take clones in flower again! lol
 
my friend took clones from a plant in 3rd week of flower took about 2wks before signs of any growth on top but produced loads of roots in the 2wks. ther about 6wks old now and are now fully reverted back to veg state and are starting to shoot away on top he fed them the veg recomendations on his fert soon as there was signs of roots and they have been fine
