I understand this may be harder from what ive read a few places.
They both are still green and leaves havent changed color , but one of the clones leaves are curling a little bit, as this is my first time cloneing ... im not sure if this is normal for a few days or so after taking your cutting and cloneing it??
Did you trim the larger fans at all? If they are trying to transpire too much moisture, they may curl a bit.

Absolutely. You want the soil moist, but not soggy.

See above.

How should a clone look after 2-3 days of taking the cutting?? Droppy at all??
They shouldn't really, but if there is too much light, they may try to. If that's the case, they will yellow-up pretty rapidly as they suck the goodies out of the fans available, since they can't draw nutrients from the soil yet.
They shouldn't appear droopy or wilted.

Atta boy!
Sounds like you're on track, just make sure they're not gonna drown in soil that's too soggy. :thumbsup:
