Gracias TSM! If you ever got a question let me know, I've been reading forums daily since 2001 and have a decent amount of knowledge on the matter... 
Trip- I used to have the same problems, I'd start self-analyzing and shit and all my thoughts would turn negative and then I'd have a semi-bad trip... Then I usually just wanted it to end. Ever since I met my GF and tripped with her a couple times they've been completely happy trips and no mental self destruction... haha awww it's not funny.

Ya dude thats cool haha I gotta get the anxiety under control before I even think about tripping again. But dude my plants are doing good man, they didnt burn or anything. Probably cuz of the overcast skies today. But my buddy and I went out there and the soil was still damp so thats good too. I like your new grow closet/cupboard/wooden box with a light ontop of it haha that plant looks really healthy too.

Thanks bro, I woke up early this morning and it took me like 4 hours to make because I was super anal and made everything perfectly square and flush... Probably could have created it in an hour but oh well, I was high and love doing perfect work. 30" of vertical grow space is pretty decent. My largest pot is 12" tall so that still leaves me 18" from soil to the hood. So basically the tallest my plant/s can get is about 16" tall which is fine because I want to keep growing a clone or two at a time from now on. I want to be able to harvest once a month. It just looks a lot more clean and pro. now compared to before. Pots sitting on a dusty moist floor, I had a bad feeling about that. Now there are visible boundaries for my ladies.

Alright well I kinda got in over my head this morning as well...
Well, we'll see about that. I actually think I followed directions to a "T".
I took 2 clones off of my female. I figured what the hell, why not!? I don't have access to any more seeds and I know its a female. This way I'll have a staggered harvest. They'll remain in 24/0 light until they have definately rooted, then straight to 12/12. I'm switching the mother to flowering tonight! Finally! 
I think this strain is going to take a while to root though just by judging it's growth characteristics thus far... My other plant would be perfect to clone but he's lookin like a boy but I'm not cuttin' him down until I'm absolutely sure.
Here's the method I tried to clone this bitch. (Soil)
1. Cut the clones off at a nice angle, right above the first node. (4-5")
2. Removed the bottom set of fan leaves.
3. Soaked in bottled water for 5 minutes.
4. Dipped and tapped the stems in Rooting Hormone Powder.
5. Stuck them 2-3 inches down into moist potting soil (prepped hole).
6. Made 2 translucent humidity domes and placed them over the clones, misted once.
7. Lighting with (1) 30W CFL and (1) 23W CFL. (24/0)
Think I did a good job? I can't take pics until my parents get back from Cozumel, Mexico in 6 days. I assure you I followed the directions EXACTLY as mentioned.

So is there a possibility that the clones can stay healthy looking and not wilt for those 2 weeks and still not root? Or will they wilt and look shitty if they aren't going to root???

They are likely to wilt for a few days anyway in my experience, but that doesn't mean they won't root.

why are you thinkin they wont root?.....you'd be surprised at what they can go through and live.....ive stored many unrooted clones in the fridge with the open cut moist inside a rockwool cube/ rapped in a wet paper towel/ or even in a cup of water.....then i took them out dipped them in rooting hormone, stuck them in something and put them under light......

Well im just skeptical of this whole process. I just feel like they won't live because I don't have a cloner or like an aeroponics setup. Are they likely to still root in soil? I did everything right but we'll see, I guess it just takes a while...

One of the best ways i Know is to Root clones in rockwool cubes. I have never tried in strait soil, but time will tell. And as long as you have a humidity dome, you should be fine. But remember that clones and seedlings are far more vounerable to heat damage than vegging plants.

Hahah oh I've been relaxing all right. There was a festival in my town last night and I wandered around shitfaced and ran into a long time friend who decided to buy his first rolls and he gave me one (they were amazing...) and we snorted em' and went back to the fair... It was a great fucking night.
The heat is probably about 85 in my little clone cabinet. I figured keeping them warm and moist would be a good Idea...
I've just never cloned before and have no idea how easy it is to fuck them up. I never lose seedlings so I figure I've got a good shot of these rooting.
My mother is getting big fast. I've been too drunk lately to actually set the lights at the right time so they just keep vegging... That's okay though because I bet my expected yield will double because of the extra veg time. She has 12+ Nice size tops and they are starting to explode due to the extra 3 gallons of root space. So much for my 1oz goal...
I can't wait to get the pics up for you guys though because I can't for another 5 days and by that time she's gonne be much bigger.
The smaller 3-way plant is about 5 inches tall with 7 nodes... very tight and sturdy. I'll flower her at the same time. If she's a girl.

So my clones have been under the lights for 4.5 days now and haven't showed any changes since they were cut. Should the light cycle be anything but 24/0? I've never really researched it and figured I'd just ask you guys!
I'm also misting once a day onto the insides of the dome and then the soil and clone. Is this okay?

lol, dude they will be ok just keep them in the dome. I have heard that clones dont like the light to much but im not sure about that. I know when I took close off my plant it stayed green forever and I didnt think it was rooting so I pulled it up to check and ripped all the roots off haha. Dont do that I was stupid for checking. I think your clones will root, just make sure that you keep them under your humidity dome so they are happy.
