Don't worry about an embolism. I'd be very surprised if you ever got one.

Heat mats are relatively cheap and work wonders when rooting clones or popping beans. I had a much better success rate when I bought a good humidity dome and heat mat. Before your next batch pick up those two items. Your clones will be happy.
Good luck with the lil one.

Ok and now for the most important part of cloning;
Stop frickin' messing with it!
I know it's super tempting to look at it every 5 minutes to see how it's doing, but seriously the more you mess with it the more likely it'll never root. aside from misting the first couple days and making sure the humidity is fine, you should not even touch it for the next week.

not to thread jack, but I always wondered...when you're putting a cutting into a rockwool cube, do you put it in until you feel resistance or do you push it into the cube past where the premade hole is?
it always seemed to me like pushing it in too far would damage it.
--------------------
Of course it's happening inside your head.
Why should that mean it isn't real?

Pushing in too far will remove some of the rooting gel/powder and def damage the cutting if you aren't careful. I've only used rockwool once. The brand I had you just pinched it to open the hole wide enough to insert the cutting without rubbing the rooting gel off....then let go and the sides bounce back into place hug'n the cutting. I used a humidity dome with about an inch of perlite and some water to keep things humid. Also a heat mat keeps things at a great temp for roots to flourish.

I push mine all the way to the bottom of the cube.
I do this with rockwool and rapid rooter plugs.
Just be careful not to break the stem.

I never understood why people shove the cutting into the cube.
Just cut a slice and put the stem into the slice cut in the cube then wrap with a rubberband or whatever you choose. (you don't even need to wrap them actually)
The difference my stems are not damaged in anyway and there is actually a little gel left on the stem once in the cube.
