I would say from around the upper section of the middle, Only because im guessing that it is not a mother plant but if it is You should take from the top (Newer Growth)

Top: Newer Hormones.
Middle: Ok Hormones.
Bottom: Old Hormones. (Not a Very good rate %)

They key is to have a high rate and make sure it goes smoothly,
Therefor take the top cuttings and Have healthy Clones..

I don't know about old vs new hormones, but the lower branches will root easier and quicker because they have a higher concentration of rooting hormones than the upper branches.

agree with riu. ive tried both upper and lower branches and the lower took root 4 days before the upper branches. plus they were bigger which i believe the bigger the clone the bigger the mature plant. thats my opinion anyway

i concur... lower is better, plus you want to cut most of that growth out anyways becuase if your growing indoor(which judging by your avatar im guessing you are) the light pen. is so low down there that u just get popcorn farts and if you cut them your plant puts that energy into the main tops.
just the way that works for me
