Thats an awfully long sentence. It gave me a headache trying to read it. Next time you post, please consider using punctuation marks (periods, exclamations or question marks).

Check for roots after 15 days. IF nothing by then just leave it alone til it either roots or dies.

If you use all perlite, you won't run into problems later. You will run into problems right away. It simply won't work.

Get some root hormone and a rockwool cube. Put some of the root hormone on the cut end and then plant it into the rockwool.

i am no expert first of all.

However I have not had much luck with rooting without using cubes. I bought rapid rooter cubes for 10 bucks..for like 20 of them and i stuck my germinated seeds in there....had roots in less than a week on a 24 hour schedule.
furthermore....I had GREAT success even germinating in these rapid rooter cubes.......the ones i germinated inside even had a better root system than my others.............how fuckin crazy.

On the serious side.....keep your light on the clone........keep it moist but not crazy wet. and if you cant get those rapid rooters.....can you go to home depot and get the cheaper jiffy pellets....those worked good my first try....before i learned about the soilless rapid rooters

if that works for ya let me know :)
