If you air layer (air clone) you can do it up to a few weeks till the end of flower, root em right on the plant, snip and plant em the day of harvest, stick em right back under 24/7 and regenerate them.. It's not the quickest route at the end of flower.. to reveg mature bud clones, but if you screw up and need the plant, it will work nearly 100 percent of the time if you do it correctly.

That's been my experience anyway.., everyone else's own mileage may vary.

I've taken cuts up to week 6 myself. I've read pros and cons of flowering clones but first hand I did see decrease in trichs from the flowering clone.

Hi Dbkick..

In my case, I reveg the flowering clone, and turn it from a bud into a big ol potted plant all lst'd up and ready for the next round of flowering.. by the time it starts flowering it is just one big ol strong plant that is identical to it's original mother in potency potential. I've taken flowering clones from flowering clones from the same strains for years.. never any noticeable loss of integrity..

When I re veg the cloned almost finished flower, it creates the most intense branchy off spring it is just crazy.. I wont clone a plant that doesn't have some budding happening.. if I have a choice..

I used to take cuts at two weeks in or so, anymore I take cuts before I flip. I do understand the branching capabilities of the flowering clone. and although it could have been a lot of things I did see a decrease in potency .

you can see the one I took at week 6 in the photo. took forever to revert.
I am probably just being a dummy.. tired.. long day..

But I don't know if we are on the same page.. I mean when I take a flowering clone.. it is a nearly mature bud.. sometimes 4 to 6 inches tall bud 5 inches in diameter.. they look like Christmas trees.. nothing like your pictures which look to me like they were just shortly after pre flowers had started to turn.. (Again, I may be totally off. my eyes are kinda glued shut..)

And I reveg that..

And it does take a long time to reveg.. can be almost a month.. but at the end of the month, out of that bud pops dozens of little branches each with it's own top, waiting to be LST'd down.. so while it take about a month to kick it into gear, when they do it is such a vigorous growth I would almost say you save time creating bushy plants..

thanks for the raps.. I better hit the hay..

Peace~!

Also when I take them right off the plant, they already have a developed root system before I snip them.. and they go right under strong lights that very day.. (I just sit them in the corner of the room). They are 'full plants'.. Regardless of it being a bud.

I use soil.. but when I snip them off the plant, they get planted and are a healthy vigorous plant that day. all re veg aside.there is no limp or even really any shock.. I've only ever lost one and that was just me being heavy handed.. because doing them on the plant is almost foolproof (I need foolproof) if one has a gentle touch.

1st its clone
2nd when you flower
3rd read a book
Werent you the dude just a day or two ago who said on another cloning thread that you couldn't clone after you started to flower?

Dude, YOU need to read a book and do some research on the subject, and stop spreading your ignorance for fuck's sake.

Same dudes, spreading their crap on here, I swear.
