OK guys I finally have some pics. 
Sorry for the delay, His place is 45 minutes from me so I only visit once or twice a week if I can.
We converted his shower into a grow room. Only thing I need to add is a fan.
Put a 400 watt switchable MH/HPS in (MH right now for veg)
Have a DWC with some fem clones from my other grow and AI mother in here.
Aurora Indica Mother
Room has a cloner on the lower level (Purple Power and Super Silver Haze and Aurora Indica in cloner right now... some not doing so good)
And the T5 in the other closet housing the seed grown plants in a DWC (1 Purple Power (back left) and 3 Lemon Skunk
That's all for now

Just for a personal note, Rapid Rooters are more effective for cloning in these cloning systems than rockwool starters. All of the Rapid Rooter set clones have rooted and are growing vigorously while none, though they were cut later, have rooted in the rockwool yet. I will perform an experiment with my next set of clones to determine which is the better method. Rockwool is cheaper by far but if it proves less effective, it may be eliminated from the cloning and used only for seed starting

Are you soil or hydro???
First thing I would do is check ph
5.8 for hydro is optimal, 6.5-7.0 for soil

I am growing in hydro, 5 gallon dwc buckets. Using hydration and rapid rooters, plants are at about 5" tall. Checked ph and was at 5.9 last night, could it be a lock out?

I had the same problem with the buckets... which is why I switched to totes.
The roots never sink in the buckets because of the constant aeration pushing them to the surface, and of course the nutes settle to the bottom naturally. I had 3 plants do the same thing you are describing and as soon as I switched to the 10 gal or bigger totes with 4-5 gal water, not a single problem
I don't really know how to solve the bucket problem if you continue to use em, but my suggestion would be less water and allow the roots to grow in more of an aeroponic way with spray from the bubbles popping rather than sit in 2 1/2 or 3 gallons of water. Maybe try 1 or 1 1/2 gallons instead if you are using more than that.
Hope that helps.
