A common issue with rock wool is keeping it too moist causing root rot.

Yeah that brown isn't good, looks like some type of mold. Perhaps some H2O2 to kill off the mold.

If youre going to do clones in any kind of hydro, I HIGHLY recommend you just give in and build/buy yourself an aerocloner and learn how to use it.
