I have two beautiful outdoor mothers growing now, a Jamaican Perl, and a white widow and their turning out great, the buds starting to form now on each plant on multiple sites.
The problem i have is with god dam clones!
i bought a hot house that came with 72 jiffy pellets, one heat mat, one 72/cell tray/ and 2 domes ( different heights)
Then on top of that i went out bought 100 rockwool cubes and 6oz. of juicy roots.
Now, when i did take my clones off my plants in the veg stage, i sliced the stem at the bottom i shaved a little bit off the bottle of the stem then i dipped it in the juicy roots for 15 to 20 seconds then planted 5 in rockwool cubes and 5 clones in the jiffy pellets. I put all the clones in the hot house with the mat turned on high, put the 4'' dome on with the air vents, not one lived every single bit of the clones died on mee i only used a spay bottle to water them and didnt use no nutrients. Also i have two 4 foot t5 bulbs on the clones,
please someone tell me what im doin wrong?????????????????????:-?

In the summertime I don't use a heat mat. It's hot enough in my grow room. I cut the stem basically like you described and pop them in peat pellets. I've got 95% or better survival rate.

Good luck, bro.

I never had much luck with cloning till I built a little bubbler. Now it seems that I can't kill them. Think mine was $20.67 at walmart (small tubs, airline tubing, airstones, dual diaphragm pump, duct tape).
 
sounds to me like you over or under watered them. Thats a easy mistake when hand watering. thats why str8 into the bubbler is best with rockwool for me I put clear party cups over each clone to keep the moisture in no watering needed put a lil superthrive in with water and cloning powder on the stems in the bubbler system and thats it
