Thanks for the words of wisdom, I am going to continue reading while the cubes are in route. I really went above in beyond when cutting the current 5 I have done. Here is exactly what I did to prepare the clone;

I chose lower branches with at least 2 nodes.
I made the cut at an angle dodging the growth on each side; soon to be tops and the 2 hair like things on each side.
Took the cutting and placed it in a cup of store water for 1 minute.
Made another angle cut underwater.
Rolled the stem in the powder flicking off the excess.
Placed the cutting in the medium almost up to the first node.
1/2 the cuttings I removed one fan leave from the first node.

I am keeping them moist but believe I need to improve humidity. I am still hoping on a few out of this first batch but have my doubts.

Is it normal for all the fan leaves to give like they have in the picture above ?

I need to get to flower soon or I will be learning about LST. Of the course there is still hope of keeping the strain with the right combo of male female but nothing is certain with only 3 plants. The 4th is crap bag seed, I call this one my experiement plant been trying to kill it since birth.
