Alright i have been thinking of growing for some time now and have been crunching the numbers on how much it will cost to set up a nice grow room for six plants. I was in the final stage and was a about to buy supplies once i got sufficient money. Then all the sudden one of my buddies calls me up and said he needs a foster parent for his six ladies, he said they were blooming. So i thought to myself those are gonna be some big plants, i had to make some room. I couldn't turn this down so i cleared out my huge closet and he brought the plants over in these little tiny boxes, i thought to myself, those are probably just the supplies, but no they were the plants. I'm not saying you cant have healthy plants that are small. But these things looked like they were pushed into blooming way to early, the leaves were tiny and the stems were skinny as hell. It looked as if they were only a month old, and already blooming. The first night i didn't have any ventilation for the poor plants because it was just a closet. This made my room stink, because i had to leave the door open so i didn't suffocate them. The next day i went out and bought insulated ducting, a fan, and started cutting holes in the ceiling and walls to vent.

My question is: Its not possible to clone these plants if they are already blooming, is it?

I was going to start to get my batch of plants going while I'm taking care these poor little guys.

Find out if they were clones. If they look tiny, it's possible.
You can clone a flowering plant up to the start of the third week, but watch out for rot, and don't take the highest growing tip!

Half were mothers of some random stran ( really small mothers ) and the other half Norther Lights, I think the reason they were so small is because the bulb he was using was only 250W. Thats not enough for 6 plants in my opinion
