i have read alot about cloning and i just had a few questions...

a) can you clone as soon as you find the sex of the plant and determine females?

b) by the time sex is shown, wouldnt it be too late in the season to try to take cuttings and plant more plants?

i have so many questions about cloning that i cannot answer by reading so please bare with me!

thanks fellas

You can clone anytime the plant has shoots long enough to clone (i.e. 1 or 2 nodes at least). Better to take clones from all the plants early. Put one from each plant under 12/12 lighting to determine sex early. Keep the females, throw out the males.

Cloning takes a little time. I don't think you would have time to clone for outdoor planting. 10 days to 2 weeks to show roots, then the plants need to be sturdy enough for outdoors which means another week or two. Which puts you 4 weeks down the road.

It's pretty easy if you follow guides here. Best used for keeping a strain alive for future grows (perpetual harvest - indoor method). Hope this wasn't just rmbling nonsense lol
