Can a Autoflower plant be cloned?

Title says it all. Can a auto be cloned and if so does it have any time to grow big before it would flower. Since a clone is as old as the mother im assuming if one is cloned it will just be a branch with a small bud on it when its done. So Ya just wondered. Thx for info.

Simple answer is no. An autoflower won't grow as big as the mother simply because it needs time to recover and grow which isn't an option since an autoflower develops based on age. Considering you only have about 3 weeks of vegetative growth before you go into flowering it's unlikely that the mother will be large enough to cut to get a decent sized clone. At the very best you're likely to get the same amount of bud you would of had you not cut it off from the mother. Save yourself the trouble and don't bother.

They can be clones if they're not too far along in flower, but no, they will not have time to grow big before flower. There's really no point in doing it. You'd just lose yield compared to growing it out as one plant.
