Hey, i'm no expert on cloning and you've not really given much info but here's a few points which may help.
What stage are you taking the cuttings, i'd say 6-8 weeks into veg was about right.
Choose cuttings with 3 sets of leaves, but cut the bottom 2 sets off, leaving just the top leaves, you want to concentrate the plants energy on making roots not wasting it on too much leaf growth.
Where you cut the bottom set of leaves off, cut the stem about 1/4" below and plant it maybe an inch deep, I believe where the bottom leaves where helps get more food and water to the cutting.
6 days in water seems to long for me i'd go for 1 or 2 days max.
Make sure the enviroment is quite humid to start, a propagator is perfect and are cheap, if not find something round the house to cover them, a big glass will do the trick for a couple of days. Spray them with water once or twice a day to keep the humidity up. Reduce the humidity over the course of a week by letting more air get to them. A propogator should have vents which you can open to do this.
What strain are you growing? Might be a difficult strain to clone, try and find someone growin the same stuff, they might of had the same probs and know what works best for that particular strain!

Good luck, hope this helps
