Now is a good time, but you do need clean undamaged growth.
It sounds a lot like your problem is the potting medium you are using try
adding 50-75% perlite to a good quality brand. do not add any extra food.

Fuchsia will normally root in less than 7 days however you do them but as
with most cuttings direct sun is lethal so if using the bag covers white
is better than clear, good light but not hot.

Look for material that is stiff but still green, and check the cuttings
every day to see that they are not too wet or too dry, misting the tops by
hand may help.

Cheers, have got some perlite and used that for 22 new cuttings today, they
are in a translucent container, sort of thick polythene, not completly see
through so that should keep some of the light out.

Have got a sprayer so will give them a light misting regularly, Ta!
