Due to corona I'm waiting for my clonex gel. I've never took cuttings before but Plants are ready to go. I'm 7 week in veg and want take cutting soon and flower the week after. If my stuff doesn't arrive soon what is the best thing to do.

Absolutely you can. I never use the stuff.
Make your cut and if you want place them in water for a few minutes to allow the cutting to absorb some water and then put them in whatever medium you are using.

Cheers mate think I may just have do that. I did think of leaving a couple in water also and then if stuff does come can try root them then
 
Cheers guys don't want take too many as only have 2 plants but they are doing so well with the extra veg they gonna be good
 
Will rapid rooters be the best option or straight in soil. I have biobizz all mix organic soil. I will probably try 1 of each method anyway but the more help the better thanks

I put them in those jiffy peat pellets and I also put them straight into my medium, fox farm ocean forest. The soil just takes a little longer imo.

rapid rooters would be best. All mix is possibly a bit over fertilized for this stage. Probably would be fine though.
 
I literally put tap water in my aero cloner, take cuts off plant, put them in cloner and roots in 7-14 days.
 
Rapid rooters work great. If you have a heat mat under the tray and a dome they work even better. Don't forget to mist your cuttings at least a couple times a day
 
Do you have an aloe plant or have friend or family member with one?
I use Azos and rockwool cubes but I've used aloe in the past with great success.
If you have willow trees nearby, a tea made with a few 1inch pieces from a branch steeped in water works great too.

But, if you don't have access to those, you can absolutely do as other suggested and root your cuts in peat plugs.
