How old is your oldest mother

[WashougalWonder]

Just from the standpoint of curiosity. My 'oldest' mother was given to me in 2003, so that makes her 8 years that I have had her. I have 2 different species that age.

What about you? Who has the oldest mother? Reveg or clones allowed.

Clones from old mothers grow just fine. I get some from a 9 or 10 year old pineapple kush. The leaves never have more than three petals but that does not hamper the growth quality or taste. I have heard this is from repeated cloning a clone of a clone of a clone etc. Several folks also told me that cloning after the third time would result in diminished plants. Anyone else have experience with such plants. I find them to be perfectly healthy except for the three petal leaves which don't seem to be a problem anyway.

Got a great girl from some good smoke. She is 4 1/2 weeks into her first flower. When she is done I will reveg her and make her a mother. I will keep her alive for as long as possible. I have a 20 gallon pot i can use and can cut the root ball if needed to transplant. She is hardy, very easy to grow and loves the conditions i can give her. She is all set to be harvested and revegged on Valentines day.
