It'll be fine for rooting.....When it stops rooting and starts growing again you wouldn't want to keep it under there too long. It'll stretch like hell for sure

For vegging you would definately want more light. If you have a screw-in bulb desklamp you could go buy a twisty cfl bulb like scarf..

You can clip them now if you want

I do it for the reason that I believe they transpire less and also they take up less room in the cloning tray, especially when it's full

I find using the 24/0 reduces stretch because they always have light and don't stretch out looking for it for the first month r so

If the new clones don't have enough moisture/humidity they will collapse..since they don't have roots they intake humidity through their leaves. Without it they will wilt and die.

I assume they are still under a humidity dome? Try taking the lid off, and then check the clone after 15 or 20 mins. If there is any sign of wilting put the lid back on, if not try another 15 or 20 mins and recheck them. Repeat over a period of a few hours. After that if there is no wilting they are good to go..it'll mean you have sufficient roots

You could also give an ever so slight tug upwards on the base up the stem to see if there is any resistance ..if there is you have roots. Don't tug too hard cause if there are roots you don't want to rip them either..

What medium did you plant the clones in?

Peat based all purpose compost and perlite .. and she has deff rooted but with the mother 2 weeks from end of flowering she will have to stay under the 10 watt bulb in the closet until then.
