Emergency! I had to cut babies from budding plant this morning. I usually leave a bedroom window open when the 1000 watter kicks in the give the room some fresh air and a good load of CO2 to my plants, but this morning I found my clone tray close to the window sill, (my wife put it there to do some cleaning in the room and forgot to put them back) needless to say they froze overnight and were all flat and look dead, I'm still going to give it a shot to bring them back to life, I put them in another tray with a heating pad wrapped around it, hope it works. But what I did is out os desperation, I cut myself 8 more babies from 2 of my plants that have been flowering for 1 week now, the shoots are developping nicely on them, but I cut the babies from the lower part of the plants, they are not the strongest of the shoots bot hardly had any pistils growing on them, I think it's going to be ok, we'll have to wait and see.
Here's a pic of my new clones.:pimp:

Should be no problem at all turning the cuttings back to veg after 1 week of 12/12.

There are even tutorials here on relating to revegging the whole plant after harvest.

Take care.

Thanks, that's reassuring,,good thing,,,I used to grow many years ago and did cut many babies from budding plants, but the success rate was about 50/50,,,should be ok with these as long as they stay away from the window sill in the cold,,lol,,,I'm punishing my wife for this also, she left the babies on the edge of the window overnite and froze stiff,,,so I woke her up from bed after finding out this morning at 6.00 am, asked her if it was her that left them in the window overnite, she said she did, so I cut her off smoke for the day,,she'll have to find her own, I'm not sharing mine with her today!,,lol

Sounds like a punishment that fits the crime :)

Like the leprechaun says, no problem. I actually leave some lower limbs on flowering plants so I can take cuttings, usually at about 5 weeks into bloom. Never an issue.
