Can someone please explain to my woman that cloning into flowering is possible, but the negative issues associated with it? From what I understand, yes it's possible but reverting s clone back to veg is unnecessary stress from hell and is like a month. I'm trying to go all in, all out and all this messing with stuff when there's already 70 clones coming seems not needed to be causing extra stress to the plants lol

I've done it a bunch just fine no stress to take just one or two lower branches but I only do it if I didn't take any in veg and I really want to save that plant. Takes like 2 weeks to root in plugs and another 2 or 3 to reveg. If you already have clones of it there's no point.
But the time to revert plus growth? O can grow a ton of clones to make up for any single Bush in 30 days which the time I need to be able to keep the overhead costs down and actually stop this 60 day veg garbage. It's just throwing money out the window when the best I can get is grams per watt. Number of plants dont matter, it's the time involved, MY time, the time for growth, the overhead costs of say...24/0 versus 18/6, mainipulation methods that take time for the plants to adapt and recover, and the other ticks that take time I dont have to spend.
If I pull 1230 grams from two 630 watt CMH lights...that's a win no matter what the number of plants is if done with veg in 39 days.
Dare to say I'm wrong?

This is a monster cropped clone that’s 46 days old lol I call her “Hydra” she’ll be getting Scrogged and flowered in my 2x2 solo after her mom and another girl are finished flowering in there. She’s gonna be huge, 2x as big as her mom was when I started flowering her. Just got lollipopped and defoliated yesterday so not as bushy. Check out the main trunk though, like a gnarly monster growing out of ground. I LST’d the shit out of her but never topped her.

Works fine, just needs a while to start pushing out proper leaves, if it’s your only chance to keep something special around I’d do it for sure.

Took 10 days of 24hr light to revert mine back to veg

What were you reverting back?
10 days sounds ridiculous to revege a clone, I can barely root it in 10 days.
My forementioned monster cropped Clone nicknamed “Hydra” . Took 10 days of 24hr light to get to root and revert back to veg state. She’s now 46 days since cut and here’s her right this moment
Check out dimensions on tape measure in pics. She’s only in a 1.5 gallon pot. She’ll be repotted into a 3 gallon fabric smart pot before she starts flowering
She’s a beast and WILL fill my 2x2 when she flowers solo in like 6-7 weeks

Do you have a photo of the clone, it can't root and revert back to veg in 10 days there's something not right ?
I got a ?
Anyone know if a clone taken from a monster cropped clone is also considered a monster cropped clone? And will it be as crazy bushy as it’s mom? Despite being a clone of a clone?
I only ask cause I had an oopsie and broke a branch bout 12 days ago and decided to save the piece and it rooted ( I average 10days for my cuttings to root) and has been in its new 1 gallon home for 2 days now. A little bleachy but greens coming back, it’s gonna live for sure. But will it be as bushy like it’s monster crop clone mom?

This is not the best of pictures, but the smaller plant, orange crush, on the left which was a clone taken from a mother in early flower. When I harvested, it was 1 big bud. There were some smaller branches that ended up growing low, but she never really grew upper branches. Lots of single point leaves. I think it would of with more veg time, but Mother Nature did her thing. The plant was only about 16 inches tall. Perfect size for my middle of town back yard.

Would I be able to trim the bulk of the roots of and repot to make it more manageable in a clone tent?
I'm planning on giving it a try any info would be helpful.
