Confused about cloning?

If you don't find out what sex your plants are until flowering, and you are supposed to clone from veg... How do you know which plants to clone?

you can wait to clone your plants until after you flower, but you need to take your clones as soon as the mother plants show sex. Or you can clone all your plans before you clone, just make sure you label everything, and remove the males(clones and mature males) as the plants show sex

All you have to do is put them in flowering until they show sex and when they do pick your mother and put her back into vegging a few days and take your clones, keep your mother in vegging and you can get 15-20 clones every few weeks maybe less time/clones depending on the strain.

Two ways:
1. Flower (12/12) the plant until it shows sex, then put it back in veg (18/6 or 24/0). It will take a couple of weeks for your mother to go back to veg and this causes stress.

2. Keep your plants in veg until they are tall enough to take clones. Root the clones and put them in flowering, no veg time. Once the clones show sex then you know what you have. This is a bit longer but your clones, bud and plants will take less stress from this process. good luck hope this helps.

could'nt you just take a clone from a flowering plant and then put the clone on a veg cycle (just a question as i am at the same point in my grow)

you can take clones from a flowering plant, but it will take longer to root.
