1st clone attempt. HELP

[green831]

Okay So i Will explain how it went. I made cuttings based on what ive seen in pictures online. don't know if i did it right i'm kind of experimenting. But my big question is, generally it looks like to me i was cutting off colas and only the colas would be clonable. I have 3 more large colas coming up my plant as well as the middle so i'm not sure if i would have to put them to clone.
My plant is currently 2 weeks into flowering (after only a 2 week veg cycle), has proved its female gender, and is about 20 inches tall right now.

I the first picture i circles in red a couple of cuttings i made that are from the smallest bottom cuttings. the yellow is jsut a fan leaf so i'm not sure about that what will happen. and the blue is fromt he bottom half of the little colas i put down. i didn't know if i throw them out or what to do with them. please help!

Also, I put a cover on top to keep humidity up, but the plats touch the top of the cover. should I remove it in this case and just mist a few times a day?

Thanks again

also heres the mom, 32 days old, notice how many colas she has? do i really have to cut them off? ahhhh

again, right now i have my "cuttings" in my new space i made tonight, with 2 42 watt cfls, thinking bout putting them at 24/0 a few days or maybe 20/4

please help me! thanks

Best to take cuttings while still in veg. Easier to root vegging clones than it is to root flowering clones.

Red circled shoots are clones. Blue ones are iffy. Yellow won't work.

Might need to trim the leaf tips down by an inch or so pretty soon to prevent moisture loss. The leaf tips will fade anyway.

Do not keep misting the plants, mist the dome and keep soil moist, not wet. Allow fresh air every few hours to avoid moldy conditions.

A couple of CFL's at about 5 or 6 inches should be fine for the whole tray. The idea is to promote root growth for now...not foliar growth, but the trick is to keep the foliage 'perky'. 18 to 24 hours of light a day. I go with 18/6 schedule with near 100% results. Plus, if on 24/0 schedule, and the soil dries out while you're sleeping...failure rate increases. They won't root on a 12/12 schedule. (that I've ever heard of)

Thanks. I'm still just a bit confused on cloning. Do I remove colas, lose width of my plant, and make clones? I tried finding pictures of where different cuts were ta'en and how many but I couldn't find anything great
