Is it ok to make this a clone?

[Padrone]

Yup, like the title says...

Is it ok to use this as a clone?
Any tips or advice?
anyone tried cutting clones 1 week after harvest?

 

[C.Indica]

No.
That plant has reached the point of senescense.
It doesn't have enough hormones left to even root.

You're seriously boned. Just smoke it and learn your mistake.
Sorry bro, looks like good smoke though at least.

That will regenerate after rooting but it will take several weeks. It will look like there's no growth at all for about 2 weeks after rooting and then small thin single leaflets will start growing out of the buds. From there it's like with new seedlings, more and more leaflets. The plants will be just as vigorous as the original plants were before flowering.

 

[Padrone]

NO don't tell me it's over for them...

I'm revegging them as we speak, been told it's just as good as regular unbloomed girls.
But I heard today from one guy that it's not different at all cloning a plant in full bloom.
That's why I'm asking.
Any other interesting comments on the matter?

so you are saying I should clone these and they will shoot roots like normal clones? but will not show any foliar growth for 2+ weeks?

You are saying 1 week after harvest? I wouldn't think so, the vascular system would be dead in all likelihood. Would it root freshly cut from the plant if you are efficient in cloning probably a better than than 50/50. Always worth a try.
Good Luck

You can definitley root that, and yes it will take over 2 weeks to revert back to a vegetative state. Next time take your cuts before you flower. respect

Nothing but respect, I did take clones but they all died (too much heat and too litle humidity)

But would they root before they would revert?

 

[Alex Kelly]

I've never seen it done but give it a try. If it does work it will definately take a couple weeks. Good Luck.

If you harvested those plants at the right time, they have spent all their energy in floral production.
If what you are holding in that picture is one week after harvest (which frankly makes no sense) then that flowering branch
isn't supposed to have any energy left.
Unless you did something wrong.

There's always the chance that your plant is different, but as far as the average of studies from the last couple hundred years of cannabis research go, it shouldn't have a chance.

yeah, they will root (slowly) and you wont see new foliage for weeks. Reverting your plant back to vegetative growth puts it into a stressful state. Not only does your plant have to work to put down roots, it also has to work to recover from the stress of the light change, before it can think about growing new leaves. It will work though. If you know how to clone properly.

 

[Padrone]

If you know how to clone properly.

My success rate is around 30% (mainly because all my last ones died)
So it's better for me to take it slowly and just revegge them and when
they have good new foliage I should take clones from them?

I need advice please.

Good point C. Indica...senescence is the key word, there is no going back after a plant(of any type) has gone through this hormonal stage. There is absolutely no point in cloning from that particular plant. And does asking anyone about cloning 1 week after harvest even make any sense to you Padrone!? I could see using cuttings 3 weeks before harvest but AFTER?!?
Anyways, this is only my opinion...from your photo, there were only small clusters of buds at your harvesting time, is that something you want to pass onto decending strains? I'm not knocking you on your grow but the whole point in cloning is isolating the best qualities of two or more strains and combining them into a "super-strain" or hybrid. Do you have any surrogate mothers to get cuttings from? I suppose you don't since you're asking about using old cuttings from previous harvests. Anyways, knowing how to clone successfully is only the first part, your next part is understanding why you're starting from clones and what you gain by doing so.
Good luck

I don't think i can say this enuf but SHUT UP IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT AND STOP GIVING BAD ADVICE!!! it will root its just harder lets say you have a 90% success rate with clones it will be allot lower 25-50%.... and itll look funny i got some ill take pixx of if you want....

 

[Padrone]

I just have these four plants. I am going to revegge them for about a month and they should be shooting up some good clone material in that time.
Then I will take cuttings from them to create new plants and donorplant. I know that the point of cloing is to keep the same properties of a plant
so that you know precisely what you are dealing with and how it's going to react and harvest.

there were only small clusters of buds at your harvesting time, is that something you want to pass onto decending strains?

These photos are taken after harvest, think I got around 1/2 pound from these 4 babies,

All I can say to this is;
Shut the FUCK up, and google senescence.

Oh, if you mean that you harvested most of your plants, but plan on re-vegging them with some buds on the plant, and then taking clones after it has healthy vegetative growth, then this will work.
But you should have been WAY more clear about this.
