Again, KB... wtf.

You can flower a plant just fine after taking clones off her. You just have to give her 2-3 weeks to recover. You should have active new growth with a couple nodes on it at the node below each cut site. That tells you it's recovered. Cloning and pruning are no different- you take active, hormone-rich upper tips and remove them from the plant. Cloning, you just take larger chunks and keep them alive. Pruning, you are just trying to get the hormone production switched. The end is different but the physiological process is the same.

KB, your post if taken literally would then mean that you can't flower a plant that has been pruned, FIMmed, topped, pinched, or cut from in any way.

Anyway in my siggy there's a sticky that contains cloning info, and there's a new sticky that is a picture tutorial for a simple cloning procedure.
stinkyattic Reviewed by stinkyattic on . which clone method for the newb? hi guys i got ONE plant from seed off a half pound of KILL purps...well its at 3 weeks 5 inches right now...now im wondering what would be easier/less stressful for this maybe-mother plant 1. take some cuts while still in 24/0 veg and dont kno the sex till i grow out the clones? 2. take "flowering cuts" from the plant but i will kno the sex for sure...but i heard flowering clones are harder to take care of?
