it helps to keep the clone from transpiring, which helps prevent wilt, and promote faster roots.

still a newb, but you usually cut the tips like that when taking clones to help them root.

you clip the majority of a clones leaves to focuse the plants growth hormones on the roots and rooting. if it doesnt have whole leaves then it doesnt bother with sddressing too much energy towards them. hence, get rooted faster.
