New growth after transplanting clones?

I have a few clones that I transplanted 2-3 days ago, it's my first time doing so. How long does it typically take before you start seeing new leaves growing? So far they seem to have just been sitting there. I cut them from a healthy mother, put them in vermiculite with rooting powder on em and everything, rooted after about 5-7 days and I transplanted them to 3 gallon pots a few days ago. While rooting I had them under 24hour light now it's 18/6. They're all still green it's just they haven't been growing new leaves? Is this normal?
 
what light they under? if its hps give it a few more days and they will start to take off, if its cfl then they grow slower,
 
Seems like some clones take there time in starting to grow.
Recently, I was going thru the same thing as you with some Black Domina clones and then
all the sudden they started growing at a quick rate even though
it took awhile for them to start. It took longer for them to start growing
then I thought it would. Stay patient and your clones will reward you
very soon. I have 2 baby bubbas that are taking there precious time right
now as we speak. I noticed the fatter the stem at transplant, the quicker
the clone starts growing and the clones with the fattest stems always grow
much quicker then their counterparts. When I pick clones, I try to always pick out
the ones with the fattest stem and I always get the best results this way.
 
Alright thanks just wanted to make sure it was normal, I had a rough time getting my cloning technique down ( lost like 8 clones outta 15). And they're under 3 daylight cfls 26watt.once they get going I'll add a few more in there but smaller plants seem to do just fine off of a couple cfls.
 
Oh also when should I start giving them nutes? All I can find from searching around is when to give em nutes if you're doing hydro not soil
 
depending on what soil your useing (if the soil has nutes in) i always start after about 10 days at quarter strengh and work up to full, just wait till there about 6-8 inches tall
 
it will say something on the bag like feeds for 3 month or it might have a npk value on back, if not then start off slowly like i said above
