no it hasn't for me and i take like 2 or three bottom limbs off per plant when i clone.Will cloning during flowering stage slow the process of growth for the plant you take your clipping off of?
if its good bud thats why. i grow big bud strai every grow along with 2 or 3 other strain..I never cloned before becuase like.....yeah its bigger then just starting off a new seed, but if anything I'd say by the time a clone is healed and used to the soil,by the time its 6 inches tall, a newly sprouted plant would only be like 1 or 2 inches behind the clone. So I feel its not that big of a deal, plus who wants he same bud over and over again. Just my 2 cents
carefull, fem seeds don't mean 100%I never thought of that......but then again, whenever I buy I ALWAYS get Feminized, so still makes no difference to me (didn't mean that to come off as a d!ck statement, I appreciate the info mate)
