ok so i have all my plants under 18/6 and a bunch have shown sex and 2 are female

can i still clone them with out any setbacks like turning them herm or something..... its not like they are flowering they only get 6 hours of darkness so they should still be in veg they are just matured i guess

appriciate any responses

Yeah thats the time when you wanna clone. after about a month the plant will reach sexual maturity and show sex...this does not mean they're flowering. you should always wait til then to clone.

yeah, Thanks thats what i thought...... i was waiting for them to mature before i cloned....... i didnt think they would show sex until i threw them in 12/12 so i was going to wait for the nodes to start offsetting

but thanks for the fast responses both u gettin repped

take it easy

Ive taken clones as far as five weeks into flower. They take a long time to re-veg. The "shoots" or stems that come out of the flowered plant is crazy looking but it works. I had to do this to a plant that showed AWSOME traits and I wanted to keep her genetics and keep her as a mother. Keep in mind though, if you clone this far into flower it takes a little longer for the clone to sprout roots.... so dont give up on her.

i know its a bit off topic but...

because autoflowers bud in 8 weeks would that mean that if i took cuttings i would get a small yield or will the plants grow a little longer before budding?!?

and if i cross an autoflower with a normal plant will the offspring definitely be an autoflower?

lastly, can i use one male plant to cross with around 4 other different strains of female plants at the same time?

Just asking because i live in uk and am restricted to autoflower guerrilla growing due to short growing season and there are a few strains i would like to grow that aren't available as autoflowers

From reading on here Ive heard you cannot clone Auto-Strains.

ok, do you know anything about crossing strains?

for ecample, if i crossed a lowryder with a vanilla kush would the seeds produce autoflowering plants?
