is it possible to clone off of a clone, that is not a mother, but a brand new 21 year old? Not a TEEN, but a little bigger than that....per-say...14-15 inches in height. vegging.
cloning off the clones.

...every clone you clone off of turns the original into mother...

potency may go down after about 200 generations of taking clones from clones, but until then i think your fine.

1988 isn't 200 generations of cloning, work on your math. Whether it be genetic shift of problems from clones past on to clones. When a cell replicates, there's always a chance that something will go wrong and the genetics will not be copied perfectly. Logic would say that the further away from seed you get, the more chances the DNA has to make a bad copy. It will take a long time not going to dispute that, however it will happen eventually. How's that for bogus?

How the fuck is that not 200 gens,I don't keep momsall cuts are taken in successive gens.
Yer not making a clone yer taking a cut.
The only possible thing that can be passed on is disease if the cuts are taken from an infected plant.
Now I showed you pics and splained the dealio,show me a pic or a link or some lame c&p to back yer baseless assertations.

taking clones from clones DOES HAVE an impact on the overall quality of future babies, as a rule of thumb 7th Gen is as far as I recommend, Mr Wiseguy needs to grow up and chill

By Ed Rosenthal - Thursday, November 7 2002 (I'm sure you have never heard of him)
Clones and clones from clones retain their potency. Single lines have been reproduced asexually by cloning for more than 20 years with no loss of potency or odor/taste.
Yet the question of genetic drift over many generations is not unreasonable. Mutations occur on a regular basis in asexual as well as sexual reproduction. Genetic researcher Barbara McClintock has discovered that genes jump around on chromosomes, and recent studies have proved that they also jump from plant to plant. Any change in gene patterns, whether the gene is on the chromosome or has broken apart and lost or gained material, results in changes in the plant. Thus the variety can gradually shift over a period of time.
Clones propagated over many generations along separate lines will look slightly different. Perhaps the answer is to preserve the mother plant for as long as possible ? but even a single plant will exhibit some drift. Remember that during sexual reproduction mutations are more likely to occur than during the asexual reproductive process of cloning.
Viruses sometimes attack cannabis. They can affect the plants' health, growth and potency as well as affecting the genetic makeup of the plant. Once a plant is infected with a virus, it can never recover. For that reason, more than one plant of a special line should be maintained.
For all its faults, cloning plants is the best way to preserve a plant's particular characteristics with the fewest genetic changes.

grow up, he is the one that started mouthing and called me clueless , when I was right, read a few more post's before spewing off.
