your goin to have to give up traditional methods youve read about and take another aproach that way of cloning has minimal success and is hard.

https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/15030-batch-clones-rockwool.html

ive been following this for 3 cuttings now and i started the way you did with about a 25% success rate and the last batch i had 20/24 thats about 84% and im gettin better and with leaps and bounds, trust me this is the way to do it.

I am pretty sure that drooping of the leaves is pretty normal while they are starting out. Since you planted them recently I think it's ok that they are sagging a little and they should rebound after they start to grow some roots. Oh and I think you are supposed to open the lid a few times a day 2-3 to let them get some fresh air.

If You Must Follow This Method Than Yes Grower Summed It Up Pretty Well..................................

They are doing fine. A small amount of curling and yellowing is normal.

Quite spraying them. You need to force the plant to develop a root system and get it's own water.

But...
Forget the whole rockwool thing and switch to an aeroponic cloner. My unit cost less than $40 to make and I have a 100% success rate. I don't even use a rooting hormone. Just straight water with a little Liquid Karma to stimulate growth.

make sure that your envirolite light is a blue and not a red spectrum. they should only be drooping for a day. after taking cuttings. you can have your light inches away..dont spray 3 times a day.just spray ones a day . dont have the rockwool 2 wet as they can rott. feed from the bottom.dont spray the top of the rockwool lift and spray or soak from the bottom eg have a cup with ph ajustied water to 6..remember and soak rockwool for 24 hours befour taking cuttings. this brings out the lime that is in the roakwool..lime is not good and will slow the prosess.lift the lid only ones a day.for a min or two and spray lid with water keep temps at 75 is ideal.. hope u get good results....u can even put a we dish of water in your propagator.this will keep mosture in your propagator...dont let them sitt in water as this will slow down your sucksess but dont let them dry out...........

u can use bubbel rapp.rapp it around the propagator.this will prevent algee from forming on top of your rockwool.this is why i feed from the bottom 2 prevent algee.this is a big factor in a good sucksess rate good luck..................
