cloning help?!

I have a little problem- I have a mother that is about 2 months old and she is doing very well, I don't think that this is her doing, but probably me. I keep trying to take clones from her, they root in the rockwool, then they yellow, brown, and voila,-- dead. I need to know what i am doing wrong. please help! My process has been this- I have been taking cuttings off the bottom of mom. some branches i have cut into multiple pieces- (followed the guide in the grow faq) they immediately get dipped in water, then powdered rooting hormone and right into rockwool. They stay in a humidity dome under 24 hour flouro. I mist them multiple times a day. The rockwool was ph adjusted then soaked in a starter solution of hydro nutrients. the temp in that room is pretty high- mom seems to love the heat, and the clones stay pretty moist, but I have no idea why they are dying. the cuttings are usually about 3-4 inches tall and i remove the lower branches. as for the branches that get cut multiple times they end up with one full leaf, as the growfaq instructed. they all root and then promptly die after about 6-7 days. during this time there is no new growth on the cutting, but it roots very well. I don't get it- anyone have suggestions?

alright then i guess never mind. I have another question however- it seems like everyone is so helpful to others here, why not me?-- anyone know of a good newbie site where i can actually get answers?

Try cutting them underwater, high heat can kill clones fast try trimming the leaves if yo have no choice the problem with high heat is the leaves transpire moisture too fast and the plants die before they form roots. Make sure you lighting is not to intense either. Some stains don't clone as well as others.

Don't get bent. Most folks only answer if they know what they are talking about. The only problem that I see with your procedure (and this is only my experience) is lay off the nutes. Soak your cubes in ph'd water, cut your clone and dip it in the hormone (I prefer gel) then keep it moist in a propagator. I've had near 100% success rate doing it this way.

most of the shit you read about clones works, but is far from needed or even the best way to get results.

Thanks alot! the tutorial was great. sorry about the remark- I sometimes forget who i am dealing with. seems i have alot of memory problems most of the time.
