does any1 know at what stage in flowering is it too late to take cuttings..

i usually wait till my plants are 2wks into flowering b4 i take my cuttings but just want to know if i can go beyond this.
ive had a great success rate (90%).
any info would be great.

thanx

No problem with re-vegging cut buds at all, takes a little longer, but it fits my cycle just fine. 90-95% hit rate. I haven't tried at full maturity week 5 is as late as I have gone.
I think it helps keep the height of the subsequent clone down.

i believe that the limit is supposed to be around 2weeks - otherwise the clones will have the start of female flowers on them and will have to be reverted to a period of vegetative growth.

it is commonly believed that it is best to take your cuttings from a mother in veg rather than flower - as you have more control over the plant.

thanx psyclone atleast i can relax for a little bit yet lol.
yeah i know wot u mean bout keeping the height dwn coz if you look at my journal you will see a huge bigbud afghani thats towering above the rest.

they were all took within a week of each other and after they rooted i couldnt believe the growth rate. was in 2 minds wether to add it to the g,rm but didnt want it going to waste.
cheerz for the help m8.
