What to do with outdoor plant?

Well I have a couple plants outdoors and they haven't even begun to flower yet. I would assume they'll start in the next couple weeks but that puts completion of flowering in late October/early November. I'm not sure the climate will be beneficial to their survival in that time of year, temps in the 50's with lots of rain and possible snow. Short of digging them up for a transplant, what can I do with them? Each one is about 6' tall and 6' diameter. Could I turn each branch into a clone and move those indoors?

Thanks

yeah but u will need a cloning gel or powder, i seen on-line than a weeping willow tree is a natural root stimulant too, dont know if it works tho lol but yes u can make clones defo, look on you tube for vids on how to do it its quite simple realy

they would also need 18 hours of light per day for a while too to help root

Also be patient with them. Outdoor plants tend to flower a bit different than indoor plants. You may be surprised at what the next 6 or 7 weeks will show. Unless they are a really sativa dominant strain.......

How big/old arethhey? No problem cloning them in any event. If you clone every branch you may have quite a crop on your hands later. Could be nice buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut??? Think it over

Well another 2 months would put me at mid October, which is around 60* average temp and lots of rain.

They went in the ground around 7 weeks ago. About 6' tall and maybe 6' in diameter. How much of each branch would I use in cloning? I'm perfectly legal up to 30 plants so I have no problem moving them all indoors but I've never cloned before.

I would take the clones from the lower branches, 3-4 nodes each. Leave enough of the upper plant to continue growing outdoors, would be a good learning experience. It will allow you to see how this particular strains handles your enviroment. And you may end up with some colorful buds due to the cool temps.......Next year my I suggest Huron or Niagra for your grow. Fast and can handles the cool wet weather......

And just so you know I live in Upper Michigan and have usually harvest my last plants at the end of Oct.-first of Nov. No real ill effects, maybe a frost bit tip here and there, after a few frosts and even light snow......

taking clones from a plant that's flowering will stress them out. The flowering hormones make it difficult for a clone to veg properly. You're more likely to get hermies

They are not flowering yet per say. Even if they were clones can be successfully taken even a month into flower(some strains better than others).

the rain won't be a problem but the snow for sure the temps also aren't on your side,like what the other member sia is yes take some clones another thing is because it's not flowering you have a chance to transplant but remember the height of the top of the soil is the lenght of the bottom so you can take some tops which will go quicker inside then you can manacure the plant and the roots and if you can keep it from getting to much shock plant you can put it in a rubbermaid large container and finish it inside mj can take a lot of shit.I did a bonsai after I harvest 3/4 of the plant and still have it inside on the coffee table for the last 2 yrs.of course it's lost its potency but it looks nice and most people that come over think it's japaneze it only has 3 colas that I trim every month and prune the roots to and change soil every year so there are ways just give them love that really helps
