You'll need a Cloning Dome, or you can make one, from a large, deep tupperware, and cover it with thin plastic wrap (saran~wrap), to start them in. (Or you can purchase one from any hydro supply store). They need to build up moisture, in a sealed environment.
Then on day, 4-6 you'll peel the corner of the plastic, back an inch, or so, to allow air flow (vent), for the remainder of the time, till they start to root. Or if you get the plastic dome, it has vents, built in, and you can open them a 1/4-1/2 inch. You also want that container (dome), sitting on a heating pad, on low.
You'll need cloning blocks (rock~wool), is best. Soak your cubes in ph'd water (6.5), 4 a few minutes, squeeze them so the water soaks in real good.
Sterilize all your cutters, Razor~blades/fiskers, and cutting surfaces, with alcohol. Make your cuts, from your mother plant, and stick the cuttings (directly) into a large cup of water.
Next, take you cuttings out of the cup, and you slice the end of the cutting, just past the last nod of the cutting, on a 45 degree cut, and dip them in the rooting/cloning jel, or powder, (lots) and stick them in the cubes.
Trim the upper leafs of the cutting half off, and any other undeveloped growth.
Then you set your cubes, in the dome, or homemade container (tupperware), and make sure they stay wet, at all times, not soaked, but wet. Do not let them sit in standing water. Check~em as often as possible, and in 10-18 days, or so, give or take, you'll notice the roots on the sides of the cubes.
When the roots start showing on the sides of the cubes, you'll want to get them into the soil.
Keep them under low wattage lighting, like T-5's or CFL's.
The trick is to keep them wet, not soaking wet, the whole time, till they root, and you should be fine.
If you are having problems, let me know, buy replying to this thread, and I'll try to help you, thru the process.
Good luck.
