Default Can you use a topped branch for a clone?
I was looking to cut some clones, but as far as the older growth, the only thing I can take off my Blue Cheese plant is a branch that has been topped. This is something ive been wondering for a while now: can I use this as a clone?

Thanks!

Any viable branch can be cloned as long as it is still vegging. Some folks take clones even up to 2 weeks into flowering phase. I find it is better to take clones before flowering and then the clones don't go through the revert period.

I've taken clones in the final week of flowering!

I only did it to prove that it could be done, I wouldn't reccomend putting your plant through the stress, in addition to taking a clone that will take a long time to return back to a veg state.

The only reason you should ever do this is if it's an emergency attempt to save a strain you're growing.

I've cloned tops, middle of branches, and even second tops, not very uniform, but it can be done, be careful of stress.

sure, perfect way to top a plant and top the sides and bottom. she might stress a little but good care the hardy plant should be fine.

Thanks!
Sure you can use a branch thats been topped. Aslong as there's new growth coming out at the nodes it will work. Here's a clone I took of a branch that was topped too. See the 2 new growths coming out at those nodes. If there's new growth coming out from there use it. This one will turn into a plant with 2 tops. I'll probably cut off the smaller of the 2 and reuse it for another clone.
