Propagating fig from cutting?

"Propagation: Fig plants are usual propagated by cuttings. Select
foot-long
pieces of dormant wood, less than 1 inch diameter, with two-year-old wood
at
base. One-year twigs with a heel of two-year branch at the base may also
be
used. Dip the cuttings in a rooting hormone and allow them to callus one
week
in a moist place at 50-60° F.
Does this mean to not plant them immediately? If not, what is considered a
moist place? Just leave them exposed to air, but under a cover?
Thanks! This is a great excerpt!
