I get 100% success rate at cloning everytime hands down. To do this i have found to just keep it simple. 1St soak rockwool starter plugs in ph 5 water, 2nd take cuttings, 3rd strip outer layer from bottmom one inch of stem on one side(this is done by simply scraping stem with razor), 4th dip in Shultz coning powder and tap of excess, 5th shake out excess water from rockwool and insert cutting,6th place clones on heat mat under florescent lights. vwalla!!! roots in 5-7 days everytime. alot of people say you gotta be sterile,i never sterilize,people say you gotta have a humidity dome, i have one and get faster results without, people say you gotta use this majic $20 a jar clonig jell, i tried all of them, powder is best, it sticks and it doesnt wash away with waterings and it only cost $5. I think we all have been in your situation and tried all kinds of different ways/products for cloning but hands down this is the best way to do it
