Cloning a flowering plant.

This cutting was taken from a plant that was well into the flower stage. It took forever to finally sprout new growth, and now that it has its looking a little goofy. Is there hope of either, flowering this, or taking cuttings eventually?
I would appreciate any input on this matter.
Cheers

Just let it grow. It's going to take some time to start growing normal. Like others have said it reverting back to vegetative growth. Here's some clones I took in flower before and then later.

Thanks for all the input. Much appreciated. That is the problem when starting from seed, you have no idea if they are male or female until they start flowering. I was also able to revert the plant that i flowered off, and get cuttings off too, the mother has passed now, RIP. I see roots on a few of them now, so pretty happy to have some clones to start with. I enjoy the strain, Extreme Haze, and bought seeds online because couldn’t find any clones anywhere. So happy to have a small production now. Cheers.

Yes it seems to take for ever. Doesn't even look like cannabis in the beginning BUT boy, will the nodes be tight and plentiful! Monster cropping is the term used for this type of 'clone taking'. Very long process but neat to go through process.

And if you want to go even further you can reverse one of those clones for pollen and pollinate another to make a ton of feminized seeds. That way if anything happens where you have to shut down you'll have seed to start back up with without having to buy any.

Whoa that’s sounds deep. So you trigger the clone to flower and then pollinate it? With what pollen? Wouldn’t I need a male plant? I’m a full on rookie in this area. Thanks.

Spray some of this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008OAI6OA/ref=cm_sw_r_apa_i_4U2FEbRJDDYJ8
on the buds they will produce female pollen and you can just let sprayed plant pollinate its self or pollinate other females with it.
Don't waste money on that crap.

Some people take clones when they are in early veg, and put them in a separate area, so they can force them into flower early for sexing.

So is it possible to reflower this plant? Or is it only useful for cuttings? Thanks
