Please help! Browning leaves

I just recently purchased an older model of Spider Farmer SF1000 and am having an issue setting it up to the right wattage.
Left one is a clone, and it looks like the leaves are browning for some reason...
It was heat shocked outside one day, so I brought it in, bought a grow light, and set it up for her. Still not looking any better after 12 hours or so under the grow light.
It was set at about 50% to test it out, and now I turned it up to 100% a few minutes ago.
This particular light doesn't have any indication of what wattage it's on after turning the dial, so it's tricky for a newbie like myself to use..

Older models of the Spider Farmer lights don’t have a dimmer.

If you had it outside did you harden it off first? What is heat shock?
What made you decide going from 50% to 100% was a good idea?
What are you growing in?

Is the clone rooted? Unless you’ve got it really close and a poorly managed environment light stress shouldn’t be a huge issue. What’s your humidity? Do you have air exchange in that closet?

I don't know what I'm doing :'(
I'm watching YouTube videos to get help. I brought the outside plant in without "hardening it off first," because I wasn't aware of it. By heat shock, I mean heat stress? I went from 50% to 100% because at 50%, they didn't look happy and I watched a YouTube video, and this one grower had his set at 100%...

I'm not sure if it's rooted.. I think it had a heat stress first outdoor and then was brought inside and also went through a light stress.. I'm not sure what the humidity would be I just have it in my livingroom... there is some air exchange with a small fan next to it..

The plant is in shock a bit. hard to tell why. Plants do not react quickly to change. I would only be watering with a little bit of MycoMadness or something to develop root system.

Go slow - go easy - most of us try to do too much too fast. Growing plants requires patients.

Lastly be careful about using soils with woody particles - In order for wood to break down it steals lots of nitrogen.

Best bet start over either with a fresh clone, or seed, clones and seedlings like high humidity. If you’ve got a snip(unrooted cutting) from a friend or something scrape the bottom stem up a bit and put it in water till roots show. Once you have roots put it in your soil. Spend an hour or two reading a how to guide(there’s a ton free online that will have you growing dank without snarky comments from overly irritable terminally online guys like me )

but seriously do the reading, get everything you need to dial your environment before you start otherwise you just wasting your time, money and stress. I ain’t trying to be mean or nothing, just been there before and wasted a lot trying to half ass my first semi “commercial” run. If you can’t swing the equipment needed to dial it in(humidifier, dehumidifier, exhaust fan for fresh air exchange) hold off for a pay period or two till you can (easier said than done I know, but impatience is a recipe for failure)

Don’t rush but a plant brought back indoors will never respond as well as it did outdoors
So it isn’t shocked so much as missing the light it used to live under

Looks like it suffered from underwatering, wilting.
