I would definitely not pay for a rooted clone...although does it wilt over if you leave the dome off? Or does she keep standing straight? If she stands straight then she has roots, just not enough, and if she wilts she doesn't yet...and needs the dome. It it has roots beginning then this is normal...
what do u mean u would not pay for a rooted clone?

The perlite would need to be mixed in, or at least underneath everything...to allow the water to drain out faster...it just adds air to soil, I always clone straight into my soil as well, albeit about 40% soil and 60% perlite and it works for me...but they always look like shit until the get their new leaves going...which takes awhile...the plant has to use a lot of energy to make new roots, so it saps everything it needs from the leaves and it tries to make roots...but overwatering will also look like this...so the question is does it have any roots yet or not..try to wait 3 days and then check...lol. I find that if I make myself wait 3 days from when I first want to check then I am less likely to hurt the poor thing...

you can put your rooted clone in anything u want.
You can run into walls if you want to, its a free world. As you said "rooted" clone i'm suggesting from what he said that when it was put into soil it was un-rooted. Also if the roots wasn't mature then putting it straight into certain soil would cause nute burn.

that is the opposite of what I wanted to say...sorry...lol. I wouldn't pay for a clone without roots...without roots you are just getting a clipping...I wouldn't pay for a not rooted clone, a cutting, a clipping whatever it is called...no roots no money!

I say screw a little nute burn...in just a couple days it will all be alright again...just water with a little sugar water..it binds up excess nitrogen, and if there isn't too much nitrogen it doesn't do anything...
