how many times can you clone a single clone? and if i put it in 12/12 can i still clone it and put it back to veg if i clone it again? without stressing or lowering the quality?
how many times?

re: perpetual grows
that is a terrific question and you won't find a lot of threads answering it
...and i don't know for sure, it will be interesting to see the responses
i have read that there is a limit and it is around 20 times...the reason given in the post i read was cell division
just like all life, a cell can only divide so many times in a healthy way
re: clone from a flowering plant
yes, you can clone from a flowering plant
try 24&0 till it stops flowering - maybe 2 weeks or so
then switch to 18&6

Yes this is a very good question ..
I have an 8th generation clone. It was from an 8th generation clone of a friend's grow. I know that this clone line was old when he got it, years ago, so I'm thinking that there are over 20 gens on these plants now. I see no difference between these plants and the first ones I saw, either in growth or potency.
Just one man's experience..

you can clone a flowering plant, but success rates are lower and it takes time for it to re-veg.
it is very important to take clones from HEALTHY branches.
picking a weak and pale branch will result in a weak plant thus you get a plant thats not as good as the mother plant. clone it again from an odd branch and you make it worst.
however, if you take a cut from a healthy branch there is no reason for it to lose any quality.
