Default Newbie needs help with strawberries...

First - I'm new to hydroponics and new here. I am glad to finally find what appears to be a great resource of information from real growers.

I understand the basics, but, I'm having some trouble getting started. I started with a simple 5 Gallon top drip system with some established strawberry plants. I washed the roots, "planted" them with some Hydroton, mixed my nutes, hung my 65W hps light... and within 3 days they plants are completely laying down, leaves curled in on the mid-vein...

Can one of you experienced strawberry growers coach me through how to get started?? I guess what I'm looking for is kind of a "how to" on starting established strawberries. What are the main concerns? The key indicators or symptoms...

Any and all help, comments, questions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
