qwerty,
Those were cut from a flowering plant. Any clone that has to both re-veg and form nutes is going to have a difficult time. If you clone from a proper clone Momma, afghan clones nicely...from my experience.

those look like they were taken too late and already in flower.
that could be why they are so slow to root.
whats your soil temps? under a humidity dome? using any rooting helpers?

I can see two reasons you are having difficulty.
Firstly, those clones have flowers on them. You should take your clones before this occurs.
I realize you want to clone only female plants, therefore wait until this is confirmed.
You need to take clones before this event, then keep them or trash them after the sex is shown in the parent plant.
Secondly, the green mold on the peat sacks leads me to believe too much moisture is a problem.
Take your clones before the parent shows it's sex. Once you have a proven female, you can continue taking clones with confidence they will be females.
Good luck

Thanks guys, I took all your pointers and am working in that direction. Thankfully another started rooting, 2/8 so far.
Freeride- temp 75 degrees, humidity about 70%, that's under the dome. Yes I used rooting hormone.
Hopefully one of these veg out nicely so I won't have to reveg any that I have in flower.
Much thanks.
