Clones Still Flowering

I cut some clones a few weeks ago from plants that had been started on 12/12 lighting. Well those plants are well on their way now, and the clones have rooted and are also doing well under 24/7 light.

Problem being that the clones have continued to flower.

Anyone had any experience in this kind of situation?


Will these clones switch back into veg, or will they continue to flower?

they will re veg just takes a few weeks for the switch, my clones are from a flowered plant also, and am waiting, the hairs have wilted so thats a good sign of progress .

Taking cuttings from a flowering female will stress out the clones. It's best to sex a female then bring her back into veg before taking cuttings. Try to do things as gradual as possible to prevent stressing out your plants(instead of switching 24/0 to 12/12 do it over a week period slowly bringing down the amount of light you are giving it). You could end up with hermies after messing with their light cycles and forcing them around between flowering/veg stage.

its not a big deal if they're rooted. If you're vegging them under weak lighting, it will take a while longer, but if you're using a 400 or something larger, they should snap back into veg in about two weeks.

Ive had two clones with pre-flowers that grew hairs all the way thru, but it didnt slow down my vegging. I prefer it that way because it shows sex and when its time to flower, it has a head start. Check out my Banana og grow.

It's not so much just pre flowers, but one or two of them are starting, and continuing to grow little buds.

They are under 4 28w CFL's

They were taken 2 or 3 weeks after switching the mum to 12/12.

They rooted fine, and are showing plenty of new growth.

I'll try and get some pics up.

I have clones that are are 6 weeks old now and growing rapidly now that came off of a flowering mom. Today is the first node that doesn't have the preflower pistils on it, so just be patient.

What is it? 2-3 weeks for the clone to heal and catch up with new growth? Mines were short and the inner nodes were growing very good. It couldnt be more then 2 weeks old, rite? It had pre-flowers all around the tops on most new growth.
