How many mothers I would. need to keep. To get about 80-100 clones from and I am running T5s for veg And 2 600. Watt hps. For flower would T5s be enough for some moms? +REP

lol nice, if thats not cowboy i dont know what is.

if your moms are in hydro expect 10-15 cutings per plant every 2-3 weeks.
so figure for 10 moms

10 clones every 2-3 weeks sounds right.

yest 5 will work for moms.
you can also clone from your plants if you top them.
i started using uncle bens topping technique
you can use the top of the plant for cloning as well.
you should be able to get away with 5 -7 moms if you so thins.
i usually get 3-5 clones from every plant that i top

Let the cuttings get about 4 to 6 inches long. Yeah the 4' four bulb T5 is great for 10 moms.
