PS Help

I am working on a picture I took several months ago. I had a ton of water spots covering the seastacks in this image, I cloned them out but when I printed the image I noticed heavy dark areas (darker then the rock) in the areas of the seastacks where I had multiple waterspots.
Is there a way for me to recreate an even layer of black in the rocks so as to rid myself of the darker portions contained in the center of each seastack? I fear darker portions not fluid throghout the image, the edges give away the lightness of it. When I print on my epson 2200 it is clearly a problem. Attached is a pic of what I am working on, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, one idea taht spring to mind is to create a layer behind this image that is essentially a "paint-bucket" function fill-in using a dark tone that you sample previously from the rocks but that you know doesn't block up in print. Then, instead of cloning, you could use a soft brush eraser at a low opacity to remove the water spots.

Thanks for the help, I have been redoing the whole picture using the PB tool and it seems to have corrected he problem.

Or you could have used to the healing brush or patch tool to remove those spots
