I have 12 plants grown from seed (different strains) that are about 1 month old, 6-7 inches tall, with alternating nodes. They are under a 400MH. The purpose of this run is the find a mother plant.

Now, should I pinch the tops of the plants to encourage more branching, take a clone, and flower them, removing the males. or

Put them into flowering, take clones from the females that show, vegging the clones until the doner plants finish flowering. or

Take clones of all the plants now, after rooting, put the clones into flower so that the original plant can continue to grow and branch.?

I will put up pics later of the plants.
