try watering then with some rooting solution.
are they indica?
maybe the strain is a hard to clone strain.
IDK

are you using domes?
is there enough moisture in there?
good rooting compound?
did you cut in a 45 angle? try cutting little lines near the bottom to promote root growth?
i have had hard plants to clone too, i put 10 in a small dome and put in complete darkness ans had awesome growth!!

i put them under my living room table and to my suprize they did live and grew very strong and thick roots..... and it did take about 35 days to root, but i think it was a very interesting trial...... but it seriously worked... i think 3 died...and one died after transplant to soil

ive found that clones taken from plants outside like to remain outside,but take longer to root.Where as clones off indoor plants like to remain indoors,at least til rooted.
