I always take my cuts at the top of the nodes i wanna keep so as to not leave a lot of unwanted stem and keaves u a nice syrait away for rooting area not a lumpy spot. Covering the cups keeps light off the roots the roots do not like light and will try and stir clear of the light abd die off for whats seen by light. Keeping a solid dark shield allows the roots to form on the outer edges so when transpka ted the roots r by the edges and can be spread easier and lfaster

The question here is what kind of worms. Do they look like Grubbs or are they red worms or nightcrawlers?
Grubs are no good. they will eat your roots. However, nightcrawlers and red worms take in decomposing plant matter in the front and put worm castings Out the back. Worm castings are great for plants. 
(If they put worm castings in with whatever media you’re using, there’s usually eggs and worm castings, and the worms can actually hatch in the bag.)

Ueah @persiankas we would need a pic of the worms as some types are really good and beneficial.and some not so much. Pics would def help if u can take pics of one in good regular sunlight or canera flash only no other lights so we can see the true colors of the worm

You want the node below the collar there are meristems there that will branch out. I alway make sure there at least one node bellow the collar with no leaves or flowers.

Good worms. Leave them in there. your plants will thank you.
I don’t worry about where I cut them. I’m very successful at cloning most of the time. You just got to figure out what works for you. For me scrape the stock no matter where you cut. It. Dip it in clone X plant it in whatever you want to start it in And dome it. 
people take 10 cuttings and stick them in a glass of water in there windowsill and change the water every day and get five out of 10 to root. there’s no perfect way to do it. try using the search up in the corner. You’d be surprised at what you’re fine when you type in cloning.

I got a thread called spot the armpit clones. I have cloned every bit of the plant and i only use the tops of the plants. No shoots or nodes any more they are not as vigorous.

Question:
Some of my cutting have soft branches and some are hard and stiff
Usually i put the softer ones in the aeroponic cloner and the stiff ones i stick them in soil
Am i doing it right?

I stick all my cuts in the cloner til they r rooted then i go into coco from there. I try and wait til roots are 3 or so inches long then plant. Itll work either way but going in a cloner u see if roots start or not and on soil or a medium u cannot see roots. But either waybis feesable and works the harder woody type u can scrape a little to get the top skin off to make a little faster for roots to start but i rarely ever scrape stems clip dip and cloner
