I just cut like 1 clone per plant off 24 plants (actualy i had to take diff cuttings for 2 or 3 cuz they werent strong enough) all of the clones are just not even 24hours old and have drooped to the point where they hang over the cup straight down.. any advice? my method of cloning was as follows: Razor blade off a stock and dip into cloning gel then into soil thats in 18oz cups, watered them with 4oz's of half strength sensibloom veg grow, and placed about 5 or 6 inches under 2 30w coolwhite flouresents with a little poly barrier to prevent light entering when the flr goes off. did i make an error along the way?? i read of this method in hightimes magazine..

In all the clones i've taken most if not all have drooped. BUT. I've never ever given them nutes. Put those suckers in a humidity dome and mist frequently. They can't take water in through their non existant roots.

Here is a guide a friend of mine wrote on how to clone.

ya i know now to use a humid dome but i tried this method jus cuz its my first stab, i wonder if i can take the clone out of its soil and transfer to a different base and put in the domes??

I think that'd cut their survival rate significantly. If i were you i'd wait it out see your survival rate. Or if the plants are large enough cut more clones now, and use peat pellets or rockwool cubes.

yeah im going to speak to some other about my issue, my plants are still to small to make more it was even bad to really make the ones i made but i am still newb and experimenting moreless. thanks for your help though, my main question is about the droop, is it normaly as intense as im seeing, completely down to the side or laying one side for first days??
