Alright, my baby has been flowering for 2 to 4 weeks, im not very sure haha, but I want to clone her. I read somewhere that you can't or shouldn't clone during flowering and that seems logical. This is my first grow so I've never harvested before and I want to know how to harvest without killing the plant, or will harvesting kill it regardless? I thought that you could bring plants back into a veg state after harvesting and then I could take a clone but I don't know :PPP

Thanks :blsmoke:

I've read here at riu that you can cut all of the buds off the plant, then put her back on 24h light to force vegging. Should be able to take clippings after the plant has stabilised.

my baby is outdoors >_<
hmmm
what about harvesting early before the sun comes up so she has at least all day to get sun?

Probably not enough sun light ( time wise) to force into flower. You need at least 18/6. Bring 'em in if they fit, or get a light on them outside for a couple of hours. Not very stealthy I admit, lol. The FAQ section should have all the info you need. Good luck, good bud, and good high!

get some more seeds, and take clones before flowering next time. If you harvest she will almost certainly die, you are simply taking too much from her. you can try to clone and it actually might work if you are lucky, but you don;t want to put too much stress on the plant right now so I would avoid it. Your best bet at this point is to cut your losses (not your plant) suck it up and start over from seed. Just take it as a lesson learned.

Let Me Set This Strait.taking Clones From A Flowering Plant Will Root Faster And Easier Than If They Were In Veg When Taken.now The Bad.they Will Take About A Month To Revert Back To Veg If You Give Them No Less Than 18 Hours Light And Possibly Can Grow A Little Less Vigorous.there Are So Many Different Knids That Are Good Just Get New Seeds And Take Them In Veg Next Time.you Can Put Them Inside With A Light On Them When It Starts To Get Dark For A Few Hours To Help Balance Out 18hours Of Light.
