Pruning Clones

Hi All,
Was wondering, I got some clones all with 3 nodes on them.
As soon as they root, when can I prune them?
I know you have to wait for the 5th node on a seedling, but does that apply here ?

Why would you want to prune them dude if the plants look ok then leave them be.But if you want to prune them freedom of choice and all that then has soon has a clone has roots it can be topped to give you 2 new sites istead of the one.Then re~top during the first week of flowering and this will give you 4 main cola's.

You'se are misunderstanding me,
My clones have 3 nodes on them right now, so once they are rooted, how much longer do I have to wait until I can prune them??

Why prune?

Clones don't usually have two leaves to a node. The nodes are usually off set.

Better to read up on Low Stress Training(LST).

This is a better way to increase yield with clones.

Topping is stressful. LST isn't.
