I think that fungal infections could be a problem in compost. Most cloning mediums are inert, like sand, rockwool cubes, etc. You could try it but I would not bank on the clones taking. And you should sterilize it first probably.

I would pour boiling water where you are going to insert the clones. I always do that when I clone directly into soil.

Also, can someone tell me how important it is to reduce the level of nitrogen in the mother before cloning off it?
