Clones vs seedling from seed

Hey everybody. Got a question as usual! Are clones treated the same way as little seedlings that are up from seed? In regards to light water and nutrients or no nutrients? I have five that rooted well they are photos by the way, but some of them are looking so bright yellow or green yellow at their very newest growth tips. Do I need to give them something like molasses Maybe? They're planted in Pro mix BX with kind soil underneath. On another issue, I planted 8 Auto seeds, they're a little bit slow and popping in the rapid Rooter plugs, Now They Are Up and way stretched, and very slow to poke any Roots out from the plugs. I started them under a CFL light very close to them and I'm very surprised that they stretched like this. Anyway so that's two questions. Clones vs. Seedlings, and slow to root new seedlings.
 
Yes, pretty much. Yellowish new growth is ok. Yellow leaves that already exist means she is getting hungry.
I place clones in red solo cups, mix 1/2 ocean forest and 1/2 happy frog soil by fox farm with perlite. The nutrients contained in this soil typically last until the roots start poking out of the bottom of the cup. I transplant again after that, so no need to add any liquid feed until way later.
I try to stay away from feeding small clones/seeds anything beside a little super thrive (used once per plant for transplant shock).

You shouldn’t directly mist them after the first day of cutting them. Instead, get a humidity dome (for rockwool cloning). Mist the walls and ceiling of the dome only to raise RH.
 
If you have to most directly. Use neem oil in the water. It’s an anti fungal. Misting directly promotes mold/fungal growth.
