hey,
looks like you took the cuttings from the upper branches. i would take them from the smaller bottom branches that dont produce that much bud anyway. also lower branches make better clones.
check out the side view of my cheese. there are 4 main branches after topping (i could use 3 and cut out the fourth as it never gets very tall, a fifth branch would be useless) and a fifth small branch, that little gal is my cutting.
