trouble cloning pls help

I have had tremendous success cloning using Rapid Rooter plugs and Clonex cloning gel. You can buy the RR plugs in a tray with a dome. Cloned a Mango with 9 stems, 6 survived. The stems may look a little wimpy for a while, but that's OK. The important things are the roots... when they start busting out of the sides on the Rapid R plugs, it's time to put them in soil. This shot was 7 days ago. They're twice the size now and now I'm about ready to start flowering, all within six weeks of cloning.

i had seen those rr plugs at the grow shop and almost got some but went with the organic shit instead i have about another week before roots will appear if they do and if i am yet again unsuccesful i will try ur combo because its very important that i get this right before next spring its all part of my big expirament lol
i had some m-39 clones i think its a skunk and basic#5 ( a type of n-l) mix that makes this strain it has real dense buds a peppery taste and a good stone.
then i had some seeds from some freezeland a really tough plant that can handle some cold and is resistent to mold grows really well outdoors with a nice high and a super yummy taste its a really large plant but the buds are a lil wimpy with lots of leaf.
so any ways i pollinated 1 of my m-39's smallest 1 with a healthy male freezeland i am germing the seeds as we speak lol im hoping to get a plant that finishes a lil earlyer with denser buds and still kepp the potency only time will tell how good my mix will work once i have the plant i want its super cloning time to get as many plants out for next summer also i wanna get some really good outdoor seeds like durban or ruderalis skunk and also clone the shit out of them lol so u see its a must that i become a cloning expert lol thx a lot for all the help i know how to grow em but just suck at cloning.

well here's a update on how the babies are doing with a lil under a week left to say if they are gonna root or not im getting my hopes a lil higher every day they are still looking healthy im thinking i may be getting close to getting this right

heres some pics of the mother babies and my m-39xfreezeland seedlings

babies

crossbreeds

well its been 2 weeks and no sings of roots yet.
but the plants still look healthy the ones i used gel on seem greener than the ones i used no gel kinda opposite from a week ago im hopping the roots will pop soon if not its back to sqare 1.
on a brighter note my crossbreed seeds are growing very nicely also germing some freezeland to grow a couple with them so i can take notes on differences and similarities

To the author,
Are you shaving the side of the stem so the roots don't have to fight their way through to the soil?

not exactly shaved the sides on this batch but i did make some cuts in the stem as i seen in a sloning vid im giving them another week then in starting to break up the medium to check for roots i hate waiting and in the end nothing happens grrrr

well heres an update for any1 who still cares to read about my green thumb that cant clone for shit lol
well its been aver 4 weeks im pretty sure and the clones cut with gel are all died pretty much in the 3rd week
the clones that wher cut with no gel are all still somewhat alive and finally showing some roots im hopping they will still take.
so now back to sqare 1 im thinking them organic plugs are pretty much the cause of that batch not working since i started some seedlings in the same plugs and they took forever to start growing compared to the 1ns i just dropped in my soil .
so now i cut a new batch using gel and shaving the stem then placing them into dirt.
i filled the bottom of my tray with perlite hopping this will give me better results the new clones seem to be healthyer than any other 1 i have ever cut to date.
this cant be that hard to accomplish alls i know is im prob gonna build a bubble cloner in the near future since i hear really good things about them keep the input comong and ill keep u posted on my results thx for any and all help
