A clone needs at least 18/6 and will very rarely root in 12/12 and without different humidity requirements, so to answer your question, probably never.

well that would be best as the plant is more receptive to rooting because of hormone levels. so yes always clone in veg but you can root in flower it is harder though.

It is obviously a necessity for you, possibly lighting, or room, either way rooting in 12/12 without correct humidity does not produce as good results- whatever you say! I have grown in doors for 2 decades, and tried everything under the son and the whole point of indoor growing is to try and manipulate conditions to as perfect an evironment as possible. Rooting clones in with an equal 12/12 photo period is far from ideal.

i think i have been misunderstood. let me clarify i have taken clones from plants a few weeks in flower and then rooted them on a 18/6 or 24 hour light cycle again this is not ideal and takes longer.

I did wonder! Oh yes I run a perpetual 12/12 grow op and always clone from flowering plants, and, as you said, just expect the rooting to take a little longer...:joint:
