i have a mother that i had to keep cuttin the top off like every week, as it's out growing the space it's in and i have no where else to put her right now, and the new fanleaf growth is 1 and 2 leafs sets on them. im guessing this is not good so my ? is should i just cut abunch of clones off of her, and chop her down, and with the 1 and 2 fan leafs im guessing from stress, would it be safe to even take clones?? would this pass on to them.meaning say i took a cutting for a clone and it had the 1 set fan leaf on it would it be ok??

I had my Willie Nelsons do that, turned weird with single leafsets ... mine was due to light-stress, my timer was bad, and I didnt catch it in time ...ruined them ... I don't wanna speculate on whether it would pass itself onto its seeds, but I would assume the clones would also be mutated ... :(

it sounds like all of your conditions are ok, just that your space is too limited for the plant. its no problem really if your mother plant is shooting out 1 blade leaves, it really just means your plant is under a bit of stress and is trying to get more light any way it can. clones taken from this mother won't inherit 1 blade leaves, theyre just an issue of space/light/stress. any clones taken with 1 blade leaves should be fine as well. after proper care and rooting should produce new healthy normal sets of leaves. no worries
