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?

Thanks
Cannabis clones share the exact same dna as their mother plant, with that being said your clone can reach the same size as its mother.

Cuttings should only be taken during the vegging stage, never during the flowering periods. The cutting will now devote all of its energy to growing new roots instead of growing buds, giving you a considerabley smaller clone yield in comparison to if you would have left it on the host plant.

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.
