Trying to figure out what I am doing wrong in trying to start some plants from cuttings off my High Bush Blueberries. I took some cuttings stripped some leaves dipped them in root hormone. Put in Part Sand and part Perlite. Put them inside a garbage bag, white, to set up the humidity. Put them in the shade outside yesterday. Today I check and they had wilted and turned brown. I am also trying to see if I can root some of them in a glass of water.

I have heard that honey will also work as a rooting hormone.
