u can also wait until harvest time, cut all but a few small buds towards the bottom of the plant, put the plant back in 14+ hours of light, wait about a month or two, and you'll have nice little growths that are perfect for taking a few clones. Either way, you're going to have some messed up clones now, or will have some messed up looking plants later for cloning. However, I've done both and found both to work. it's a matte of choice.
