Clones
So my mother plants are about 7 feet tall and flowering, doing well. I took some clones of them and their about 6 to 8 inches tall.
How tall do clones grow compared to the mother plant? I'm guessing it depends upon when you take the cutting...?
Since the mother plants are flowering my clones are in early flowering stages, will they finish up around the same time as the moms? And will the clones produce more bud as a clone, than they would have if I hadn't even taken them off the mother plant in the first place?

Cuttings need to veg for a few weeks in order to grow a solid root mass. By bringing a flowering clone back into a vegitative state, you risk the chance of stressing the clone into hermaphroditing where it could produce seeds and eventually invalidate your entire sinsemilla project.

That does not mean it won't work, it's been done at all phases of veg and flower. Yes, perhaps you'll have to give them more time and perhaps a bit lower success rate, but it will and does work all the time. :thumbsup:
