ok so you aint the only one! lol
you should always run the system for three days or so on water only b4 taking cuttings, this will leech out the nitrogen from the mother and help the clones root quicker and with less stress, this withstanding, they will proberbly root okay, where and how are ya going to clone them? cloner or propagator?
good luck!
