pinch clone flower

i cut 10 clones while my plant was 2 weeks into flowering, i changed the light schedule back to 24/7 to send the clones from flower back to veg. my trichomes on my clones flowers have since ambered and my clones have a nice aroma. can i pinch the flowers off for use or will it kill my clones. this is my first time cloning from flower i need some help thanks.

im sure someone has dealt with this before. if i leave them alone will they start to have new growth soon or what. the clones look very healthy and green but its been 9 days since i cut and root hormoned the stems and still nothing has happened except maybe root growth but i dont wanna pull one up and shock it to see if it has roots lol. please somebody that knows.

Just leave them alone. Don't pinch the tops and whatever you do...DON'T PULL THEM UP!!! As long as they are looking good, don't disturb them. When you notice new growth, you can place them in your veg room and let them grow. Once you get new growth, "pinching" the buds off the plant would be the same as "topping" a plant, so at that time, it would be cool.

Remember, these clones are going to be slower than normal due to it having to change it's hormones back into veg mode. The least amount of stress is key so let them get established before you start pickin at them.

Good luck.

thanks man

I am in the same predicament. I started off with 10 clones from the mother which was 2 weeks into flowering. Ten days flew by, so I decided to pull one out to check for root bumps/roots. Bad choice because it never lived after that, as for the other 9 ladies...every day sun tanning looking better and better. In your case leave it alone and let nature take its course.

im in the same boat, except i took my cuttings a day after i moved into flowering. I was wondering once my new clones root, can i put them in plugs or cubes and then into soil or should i just plant them in soil without the plugs

Did you use plugs or just soil? How are you cloning?

I use jiffy plugs for my cloning and since I started to do so, I have had 100% success rate. I use Jiffy plugs and leave in the cloning chamber (under a 24 watt cfl at a 12-18 inch distance) until I see roots pop out through the mesh. I then place them in 16 oz cups filled with Light Warrior and put them in my veg room.

One thing I would stress is to leave them alone. Just make sure they stay moist and your humidty is as high as you can get it. Wait until the roots show (7-10 days) and then put into veg. Remember, have some patience when cloning from flower. It takes a few days longer show it's roots. Good luck.
