If you wait until you have the right equipment, your survival will be a bit better.
You gotta check out a specialty gardening shop, since most garden centers just carry rootone powder.
Look in the phone book under 'hydroponics', lol... and we all know that is just a euphamism for I LOVE TO GROW GANJ INDOORS!
Oh- too MUCH light on a cutting leads to veg growth and you don't want that until it's got good roots. I just took about 90 cuttings last weekend and they are sitting in domes about 2 feet from a (hahahaha get this!) 20 watt incandescent bulb and have already 'struck'. Hee hee. But a low-wattage single CFL in the blue spectrum is great for that. Or if you can find an 'Ott Light', those are freaking COOL.
