sounds like a very neat concept... you'd wanna get your cloning basics down before you go chopping off 2 week old flowers.

Basically you can "flower" the plant at any time..."flowering" to most is the 12/12 light cycle.. a "veg" light cycle would be 18/6. some people have the plants on 12/12 from day one.. and let the plants automatically flower without a change in light cycle until the very late weeks of flowering. All you're doing by switching from an 18/6 to a 12/12 light cycle is simulating the change in the season.. the days get shorter, telling the plant it's time to flower..and bud.. to produce seed, regardless of size.
