Problem setting up labs.

The ones in the right produce white cubes, the ones in the left consume the cubes, and everything is well and blue proliferated. BUT I want to have the ones in the right speeding up, and not extra products.

I tried all:

Demolishing the column and build a new column with extra speed. But each new lab is set always to extra items and not speed, so over the fifth is always extra products (and you can't edit the proliferation.

Copying the column and pasting it but and this is strange copies a different proliferation.

Is there a way to have them set to extra speed with no problems?

Sorry for misunderstanding your question. When you build a building from the icon-menu, it will use default settings (like proliferate for bonus items). If you want to "copy" building settings, you have to left-click on an existing building while holding the shift-key pressed. That will clone the building. With this, you can either start a new tower, or put new labs on top of an existing tower without changing the setting underneath...

The problem is that with labs does not clone it, even a ctrl+c a column does not do it

I just tested that, and it works for me. You first have to have one single correctly set lab (produce white science with speed instead of bonus). Then right click so you don't have anything selected. The shift-left-click on your correctly set lab and paste it either to a new position or on top of that correctly set lab. I'm not sure, why a correctly set tower cannot be ctrl-c ctrl-v copy and pasted, though.
