Hello RIU.

Ive been taking four cuttings for the first time in my life...

for 2 of them i tryid to scrape the stem and the other 2 i splitted the stem.. I used a new razorblade and clonex for all of them..

So are they dying? 5 days since i cutted them and they have been under the humidity dome for 3 days..

They are green and still erect, say's Kermit the frog's girlfriend...

I would give some more space between them and that CFL looks a little close, you don't want to give them too much light at this stage yet.
I see you have them in a tray, they still developing roots soaking the cubes will not help at this point. You will need to keep spraying the leaves with water only until roots take off, you will seem them at some point can take 7-10 days for them to start showing through your cubes.

They are dying. Take them out of the rockwool, recut them and put them in a glass of water until they root, no humidity dome necessary.

Are those cubes even wet? They have to stay moist. Not sopping wet but with enough water to support the plant.
