I don't pretend to really know squat, but I think people make cloning harder than it needs to be. I have gone from all the fussing and domes to a much easier method.
Cut it, split it, add root hormone and stuff it in some cutting mix. I don't bother with a dome anymore, I just put 'em in the loving shade of the mama plant and mist them a couple times a day.
The one on the far right in the pic was a low plant cut in only 2 inches of soil that sprouted roots in a week just like it appears. The others were cut, stuffed into a cup of water for a couple day's then planted as stated. Everybody looks fine and my blood pressure is lower this way.
Just my newbie .02
