it really depends on size, you need some healthy lower shoots to take away and root. i recomend 5 weeks veg under good lighting, however if you got a nice clone dome you and clone some tiny cuttings

Usually if you have 2 plants you take 3 clones from each... out of the 6 clones you take 1 from each plant and flower it. Then if you have male you destroy them that clone the other 2 clones from that mother plant and then the mother...father plant... Then destroy that one female clone that you flowered and veg the other two then when they get to size you flower the 2 clones and then take 2 more clones from the mother plant while you flower the first 2 clones.
You usually want the main plant to get pretty big (normal flower size) and then take you're clones.

^^^ not a good idea, clone either in veg or up to the first week or two of flower.. then u shouldnt have problems with success rates, hermies and prolonged rooting periods... but to make it easy just clone before flowering as u cant go wrong there
listen to Chronic P, that technique is a good way of continuing your best/favourite strain... just be sure to label your clones

But is it worth it?
Does that mean a budding plant has to revert back to vegetative growth? A simple waste of time and patience imo

what is the best medium to root outdoor clones? Is rooting solution needed before planting?
