It's a better idea to take them while the plant is in veg as the poster above stated, but I have been forced to take clones late in flower and they take long to root and may show signs of flowering still (single bladed leaves) but they will be fine.Is it a good idea to take clones while in flower?
regards,
Not a good idea. Vegging is when a plant grows, flowering is when they mature. What do you want your clone to do, grow?
Then don't clone a flowering plant.
You could just let the plant flower and harvest to re-grow. That way you get the benefit of product and time invested smartly.
After she has been re-vegging a couple weeks you can clone her then.

lots of bad info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is fine to take a clone from a budding plant it is harder to clone and will probably have to veg a week longer than normal but other than that no reason not to. Bigsteve guess thats why you have no rep and 400+ posts .And i will provide a pic or two to prove my point feel free to rep someone that actually helps you 
here is the clone 2 1/2 weeks later.

i have tried about every way out there and by far the easiest is the rock wool cubes a cfl light and a clear plastic shoe box or humidity dome .JUst got to make sure you soak the cubes in a ph'd solution for at least 24 hrs. i get 100% rates and i don't even hardly try 
also you don't need all the hocus pocus shit you hear with cloning gel, root hormones ,sterile blades all bunch of shit i use the same dirty ass scissors i have used for years and no nutes or hormones.try to keep your temp around 80 deg. should be golden. oh and finally don't overwater the cubes you just want them slightly moist not wringing wet.Hope this helps ya some.

How many clones are ya taking? jus one? The affect to yield should be minimal. But like stated it'll prolly take a good month to get it started!

take one of the lowest branches or two it will actually help yield, the bigger top buds will receive more energy.
