what light is it under did u add any nutes to the mix and is the rockwool dry now or still wet if its only been 2.5 days since u took cutting it is to be expected that the cutting will wilt and look fucked before it actually puts out roots and picks back up cuts have to be on deaths door to put out roots

I don't see a single root coming out of the rockwool. Did you use rooting hormone before you put it in rockwool? I would put it in a tray with a shallow layer of water (maybe 2-5mm) so that the base of the rockwool stays moist, that way you won't have to constantly watch it. If the ph is out of wack or the strain is hard to clone (see GSC) you will have trouble.

It's a white Russian auto? I wouldn't expect to have success cloning an auto.

Auto-flowers have a genetic timeline once they pop.

Whether it's a clone or a clone of a clone, they will all follow that genetic timeline and bud at roughly the same time. Thus, cloning an auto is pointless. It will not have enough time to grow to an adequate size before flowering. This is also why a lot of people don't recommend stressing (Topping, FIMing, etc.) your autos as they don't have as much time to recover as a photoperiod.
