Question about SCRoGing with clones

What's good fellow growers, I'm growing a scrog and was curious, I recently cleared out one of my closest. When doing that I thought to myself "hmmm, how much time would I save SCRoGing from clone instead of Germinating New beans every grow?" Thus leading to my question, how much time would cloning for a scrog shave off of the overall timeframe of the grow? That includes the time it takes to get cuttings to root. Thanks in advance for any replies, and happy growing!!

In a perfect world, all SCROG grows should be done from clones from the exact same mother plant, in order to ensure uniform canopy development and simultaneous flowering times. And to ensure no hermies. Only clones (exact genetic duplicates of the same mother plant) can give you all of these.

That being said, I've done SCROG grows from seeds with good genetic reputations.

But I don't know the answer to your question. You'd save probably at least 2 weeks. Maybe 3 or 4.

I figured about the same, most likely 3 weeks on average as best as I can figure.

I like clones. lol

Ok, my experience: humbolt master kush seed, growth ready to top at 3 weeks.

If you take a large cut, root in 5 days, you can be topping in 10 days. So in that you save 11 days.

And seedling phase of a seed is around 2weeks right? So all together, time saved will average up to about 2-3weeks per run, meaning around 3 or more harvests a year

Im getting ready to run TH critical hog and TH original bubblegum, because they very similar in flower time and are both indica dominant, ima clone them about 4-6 times each, and makea mother of each then run 2 n 1, 2 of whicheveri like best to fill my 3'x2' screen within 3 weeks to a month in veg tops then flip for flower

Could be longer, 4 weeks would be bout clone size.
