clone are 100% the same as mother Plant?

I'm running out of room growing 10 plant so my question is .
clan I clone the mother plant flower the mother then expect evrything clone I take from her before flowering to be 100% the same thx potency so on ? there is alot of debate saying to keep the mom bit it's big and I can use the space if I keep a clone instead and make that the new mom

take a bunch of clones off of mom and then flower her . You want to take several clones in case some don't root . Better to take more than you need , rather than not enough . You can always sell the extras or give them away .

Clones are the exact replica of the mother plant.
Exact dna.

Yes you can do what you said- take cuttings and flower out the mother plant..
I have been using different pots with my clones/cuttings and have grown a purple plant (all others are kinda orangey).. ,but they will ALL have same or quicker flowering time with same potency+smell etc. Good luck with clones (or you can re-veg mother plant and take cuttings). Happy growing
