Ok i have five cuttings started 27 days ago
i put them in a clear plastic container that cookies came in from the bakery. Wet spanish moss. They kind that grows in the swamp in Louisiana stuffed it full putting cuttings in the middle closed lid and put them in my hot water tank closet closed door. After about two weeks leaves where growing with white bumps on cuttings. Still no real roots. two days,ago put the container in light now the roots have started growing. Is this from the light or they just started on there own. I did the dark rooti g because i heard you get roots in the dark and not leaves. I got leaves,and not roots. Just wanted some feed back on dark rooting

Figs pretty much do what they want.  The problem with rooting in the dark is that if shoots come first they grow weak and lanky until they get light.  Once they get light they start making sugars for the plant which may give it the energy it needs to root. 

Makes sense then the leaves got light and helped to produce roots. The leaves did not open. They stayed closed and formed a inch long branch on each cutting. Going to post a pic. They look very tender and light colored

"Let there be Light" had a purpose; because it has many good usages including in rooting process.

Light promotes root growth, this is contrary to popular belief. Sunlight = heat which will raise the temperature too high and deter rooting if above 90+ degrees or so for many species. Artificial uv light or sunlight in a climate controlled environment(window sill) is the way to go. It will also help deter most fungal growth.

I have done experiments as well and light always performed better.  

go to the light!!!! Lol

That would be like doing a remake of the shinning. Cant be matched lol

For sure.
