  1. If you keep cloning over and over again off the strongest plants will your plants get better and better over time and produce more bud and be more restant to deceise and pests
     
  2. A clone is the same plant as the mother you took it from. You can't clone "off the strongest plants" because all the plants are exactly the same. For one clone to be "stronger" than another, one either has to be unhealthy or from a different plant.
     
  3. Taking clones from a mother can make the mother more healthy because it makes it thick and bushy, just like topping. But I'm with Jellyman on this one. The only way that could make any difference is if the clones had some type of genetic mutation happen, but in general the clones are the same as the mother no matter how many times you clone.
