I just read that it’s not good to cut clones from a plant in flowering. I cut 9 and all of them rooted in 10 days but are growing strangely. Should I sell them or keep growing them?
I cut clones from my plants that were in the first week of flowering.

As long as they are under veg-type light cycle timing (I do 24/0, but you can do 18/6 or more light) they will reveg. The new growth will look weird for a week or two, or more depending how far they've gone into flower. They will go back to normal veg growth eventually. I take clones from the best flowering plants I get, no problem.

You just did your first monstercropping. They'll look a little funny for awhile, but those look like it barely started flowering so it might not be as bad as if you had waited longer to take cuttings.
Here's one I took at like day 21 from flip that revegged.
And a few weeks later.

Okgreat. It was my first time cutting clones and 9 out of 10 made it. I did some research and it’s called “monster cropping” when you take cuts from flowering plants. Thanks I appreciate the feed back. Cheers.

I cut these almost a month ago so the little flowers have dried and disappeared. As you can see their not small clones anymore. I just didn’t want to keep growing them if I was just gonna waste my time with plants that gave small yields cause that’s what I heard.

When I have a flowering plant that looks like a keeper, I take clones, and whichever is the best looking clone, I use to make a mother. The next round of flower from clones cut from that mother is same as original plant.
I don't keep mothers. I take all my clones from my in flower plants usually at 2 weeks when I'm cleaning up their underskirts. I even take clones far later in flower and they do well, they just take longer to reveg. Congratulations on your successful cloning!
