Hello to all.
Question to the general population out there... Does anyone know anything about cloning auto flowering plants? It looks as if many of the auto flowering plants fit right into the niche market for Early fruiters, as well as SOG. BUt how Cloneable are they? Is there a problem with cloning because of the relatively non-existent vegitative phase? Can these plants be cloned once they begin flowering? Or are they more of a "plant a seed and watch them grow, then breed the best looking male to the best looking female" kind of plant? I'm sure someone out there knows or has personal experience with this matter. Thanks everyone,

You can clone them but its a waste of time, since their flowering period starts at 30 days no matter what your clone will be on the same timetable. You take it at 3 weeks, its going to still start flowering in a week even if its still clone sized.

I have never heard of auto flowering plants. Can you explain this to me, or shoot me a link to a website, etc. Thats interesting.

Barbwire- Auto flowering plants begin flowering based on time after germination as apposed to light cycle. in this manner seeds begin flowering as soon as 3 weeks after germination, even on a 24hr or 20/4hr light cycle. Some say the smoke is just as good, some don't. There are several hybrid producers out there, but I can't personally say what's what. I'm still fact finding myself. Google "Auto Flowering Cannabis" or "auto flowering Marijuana seeds" should put you on the right track.

i have a strain that flowers on its own and i have cloned it i got it as a clone from a friend who said it starts flowering on its own but i didn't believe him because he always bses but it does i was very suprized .. and even more suprized that i could clone it i only have one successfull clone from out of 3 stems i cut but last night i took 5 more cutting to try and clone in humidity tray on top of hot water heater with 2 flor tubes sitting on plastic lid normally works pretty well using rapid rooters and olivias cloning gel

autoflowering is a trait from the family of cannabis ruderalis
breeders cross other strains with a ruderalis in order to get offspring that has this desirable trait (auto-flowering)
people want auto-flowering based on many different reasons such as space limitations/stealth or they want a plant that just grows without the hassle of switching the lights/buying a light timer, or they want thier weed faster, as it does not take as long to mature (if i recall correctly)

but itll still grow right? how bout gettin a clone from that then? i would guess youd end up with a really small plant along the way. sounds interesting to me.
