I've heard leaving your clones in water for long enough they will sprout roots, never done it myself though.

Definitely buy some rooting powder or gel. It's definitely going to help out. A humidity dome is also helpful to keep the plants from drying out before the roots grow. What are you planning on putting them in?

Invest in a clone machine if your a serious gardener, use a liquid clone solution. Otherwise you can go to Walmart and buy a seed sprouter kit, and use root gel with your cuttings. Use a low wattage cool spectrum fluorescent for lighting.

I use 2 seperate mini T5 strip lights & a Gro Clone machine that uses one small air pump to give oxygen under water, very efficient setup.

Gel is gonna be less messy and easier to work with then powder.
