That's it,as long as the plant is in good health,the clones will be in good health.

That's how I used to do it, never saw any decline in the potency, tho I will say that after a year of so I'd start new mothers.

You can take healthy clones all the way up
to harvest. If taken in flower then the plants will have to go into re-veg that takes anywhere from 2 weeks to a couple of months depending on the strain.

Agreed, I've personally cloned 7 days before harvest and the only ill effect was it took forever for the darn thing to reveg.

And it's funny as hell to see just a bud sticking up out of the dirt.

Opposed to a vegging plant a flowering plant is more mature with a more established root system and the lower older branches are more woody so cuttings taken from a mature plant tend to grow more vigorously to the end imo. Most take cuttings in veg for good reason as well I suspect so I think it is a trade off.

I rooted a clone only Blue Dream cutting this big (not mine)



taken from this 4' clone only mother BD plant (mine)



and the little bugger grew up to be
this 9' x 9'x 9' plant (mine)



Both had equal veg time. (mom and it's baby)

Tho many of my buddies take clones of clones...I prefer to have a mom in her own room,
as I know that in about 10 days those clones would have rooted,
as the previous crop then gets moved to the bud room .
I do that as just personal preference, as I do believe that over time clones do get weaker

...many will disagree my buddies do ..so why not you.?? lol

I like the increased amount of close nod side branching in a reveg
great for makin a new mother
