anyone ever cloned a plant after it flowers?

You can reveg them if you don't chop all the leaves off, or you can take clones. It will take a while for the clones to establish from a flowering plant, but it can be done. If you have the space, I'd just reveg the plant(s) and you can take clones from the mother.

when you say leaves do you mean the budding sites or the fan leaves? also i should just cut the buds down when ready and just put it back into veg lighting cycle?

you can surely clone after it starts to flower, a lot of people think you can't, or that it takes longer, but actually there are many benefits from cloning from flowering mom's...

awesome man that would really help me! you think i should wait til i harvest or should i just cut out a budding site and put it in a cup of water and clone it like that?

Just chop off the as much as you can but leave enough leaves for the plant to do carry out photosynthesis. It only takes a few leaves and you will soon see new leaves that look like giant cotyledons when the reveg starts to take place.

I think the "rule of thumb" is no later than 21 days into 12/12, but I really don't see the difference.

im 48 days into flower i mean it will still work you think? like i should harvest leave some fan leaves on there and switch to veg light cycle?????

if you take cuttings they will take a lot of time to be ready for flower. add another 2-3weeks for it to reveg properly
