reveg clones long term storing

Today I aquired some genetics Ive been eyeing for awhile from a friend. At this time I do not have the room or funds to do my own grow. However i do have the benifit of alot of "left over" parts and gear laying around to construct a water tight aero clone bucket. For the time being i have only a 23w cfl to put them under, but that may be ok for what i wish to acomplish here.

TO THE POINT
I need to be able to keep these things alive untill I can grow them out which may be up to 2-3 months. what I want to know, and before I get this answer... I did use the search funtion and I even googled it. can i keep these cuttings under very low light and nutes and keep them small for long periods? I have them in a 1'2" x 1' x 2' cabinet and I would like them to stay small enough to stay there.

Any and all input would be great.​

I'm doing the same thing, took clones of my plants in flower and I want to keep them pretty small under CFLs until it's their turn to go flowering. I'm giving them more light than they need (about 75W of CFL) and a lil less than normal amount of nutrients. And you can always take new clones of them if they get too big? :)

it can be done, you can even keep more than one clone of each to be sure you don't loose them.
 
suspect and exploziv: thanks for the reply guys, i think i just wanted someone else to tell me i wasnt crazy here lol i figure, with 23w and only a bit of micro and cal mag they should stay healthy but shouldnt grow much.

duplicate: thanks for the link, ive read that one afew times in the past (even have it saved in a document of my fav icmag links) as ive been lurking for a couple years now. i will give it another glance.

as of right now the plan is to 1) find correct size hole saw... im afraid that the smaller diamiter whole the neopreen pucks are in will squeeze the stems too much. my fears may be legit as touching the leaves on my cuttings now they feel a bit papery.
2) would be maybe putting in a smaller pump, i have 2 gal of nute water in the bucket but the pump is a 300gph blowing out of 8 ez clone misters. too much?
