It might work out...some of those topsoil products don't have enough perlite to give the roots air, though. I'd look for cheapo bags of peat moss like promix..they have them at menards..not sure about lowes/depot. Plus less bugs in promix..if any.
I use to experiment with some 2 liter bottles cut in half when I started out..the main problem is getting air flow to them especially after a week/or when they start rooting they will need to be hardened off. I've never had a whole lot of luck with cloning flowered plants..sure you can get them to root..but it's going to be awhile for them to revert back to veg.
If your attentive and persistent it may work out..but peat moss and a $5 dome and tray will make life easier.

...lol, thanks man and i'm glad i was able to help. btw, which method did you use, the bubbler?+2 might get lucky.
Take a look at this post from Bozo. He links another canna site but describes how to make a really nifty cloner for about 5 bucks. I used this method with great success. So super easy it took several tries for me to mess it up. *too much heat*

Bozo, I didnt realize that was your post way back then but I had great success with the ice cube tray cloner. Thank you.
...yeah man, i still think that is a great place to begin learning how to clone, the learning curve is very flat and the cost's are very light, plus, it's easy to succeed with no experience at all, 70 - 80% rooted clones your first run right out of the box is not out of line. ...once this method is mastered all other metods become easy.The $5 walmart ice cube tray cloner. Punched in holes added vermiculite and took my %85 +/- rockwool clones to %95+ and gave me clones with no rw blocks.
Still have the trays....
yeah, i abandoned rockwool years ago, i found i didn't need it and i liked not having to buy it, i almost never go to a grow shop anymore, maybe twice a year to get bales of coco.I like rockwool, but sometimes I need a few cuts with bare roots. Its an easy way to produce 10-20 fast for a friend too.
...revegging, per se, won't make a plant go hermie, not unlesss it is already prone to it.Why would you take cuttings from a flowering plant ? In my experience I've always found out that revegging a plant that is already too far along in bloom will almost always stress out the clones and lead to abnormal growth patterns and sometimes totally turn hermaphrodite which is no good! Try taking clones off a plant that's not flowering yet and if you shop at wal mart just look for the cloning plastic domes that come w starter plugs
thx for that feed bozo. this is the mother witch i pulled them from...revegging, per se, won't make a plant go hermie, not unlesss it is already prone to it.
i revegg all the time bro. ...the big one is only a couple weeks from her second flip.

...and here is a look at that stump after the second harvest.

...and some new growth as she starts her third veg cycle.

...taking cuts at this stage is a bad idea because your failure rate goes way up but unless the hermie trait is already fairly strong, revegging will not cause this to happen, not in my experience anyway.
peace, bozo
it fn rooted lol ..i got roots on both ill post pics...you're welcome man but like i said, taking them this late means your cuts might not take, i hope you took several, and then your only recourse will be to do an actual revegg and while most of my plant's do indeed revegg, some do not.
so in the future i'd strongly recommend you either have a mother or rooted clone BEFORE you flip or you take multiple cuts no later than 2 weeks into flower, it's always better to take all the necessary steps to preserve your gene pool and when you wait past 2 weeks that's what you're doing, risking losing this particular puddle in your gene pool.
peace, bozo
