I actually cut the clone from a flowering female. I cut the lower brach that was reaching for the light and left about 4" for roots to grow from. I left in water for 2-3 weeks than planted the female. It has now firmly grown roots and starting to grow nicely now. I have it under 24/0 Warm floros and spray them about 3 times a day. A picture is to follow soon. Peace...MrP.
