Yes you can do this but the more and more you use clones to be mothers the more you lose the genetics of the plant. So if you keep switching out new clones to be the new moms you will lose some qualities of the mother which is prolly the reason your keeping this plant as a mother casue your really like it. Also if you keep cloning from clones you have a chance at getting some hermies

Clones are called clones because they are the exact same genetics of the mother. You can do that man, I switch out my moms very couple of months just for size reasons. Don't worry about your plant losing genetics, idk how you lose genetics lol

Many growers do this. They do it to keep the strain going, without having to repurchase seed. Most take cuttings from a mother bud the mother and all but one of the clones, and veg the one cutting back to a full mother, cut her into clones, keep one and start over and over and over...
You get the idea.

If your mother plants are huge then you are not maintaining them correctly. If you do not want to lose genetics by using the new clone as a mother plant read this how to do it properly. http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=31919 originally posted in overgrow
