Question About Clones

This is my first time growing and i have researched a lot of B.S. and am confused on something i want to try. I am growing in a small room in my house. The room is aprox. 5' x 8' i have 20 plants growing in 1.5 gal containers. They are 16 days from seed already have 5 leaves looking great sevens coming soon. I have no idea what strains they are cuz i jus took seeds i saved forever cuz no offense but ordering seeds online jus seems dumb to me. Anyway i have read a ot about clones and what i kind of wanted to do is this. Get a large 3'W x 4'L x 4'H rubbermade container or something close to that size. Top my current plants before flowering. Try to clone tops? Will this work? Then while tops are cloning in rubbermaid i put topped plants on 12/12 to induce flowering. Then i should be able to tell what plants are male and female then get rid of correct plants/clones. Then when clones in rubber maid get bigger top them put them in main room under 12/12 and reapeat process wil this work or should i not top. Cuz what i am doing is the method that i read oin a book about how this guy used jus cfls in 85 days had some buds. I'm not using just cfls i got two 150w hps and 1 250 w metal halide and like 18 42 w cfls plus a coupe 4ft gay ass grow florents which dont seem to be even on but i detract again. Can i do this method will it work to produce clones forever? Should i not top and clone from bottom of plant. I do understand that bottoms have more rooting hormone or whatevr but tops do root to or so i read. Any
suggestions?
Sorry for length of post im pretty baked.
 
i would limit the amount of info to a degree just put basic question and specs easier to read for us lazy folkes.I want to help but hate reading.
 
ok should i top? can i clone tops? after i top plants how long til i should induce flowering? ok if i dont top plants how old until i can clone from bottom branches? if i clone tops can they be re cloned? how long after i get clones to root how long in veg should i leave them or can they goto straight flower?
 
you can clone off of any jane plant as long as there is a cutting. but if your plant is in flower once you clone it will take longer to revert back into veg and to root depending on how far into flower it is. its best to take cuttings from plants that are in veg. it is possible to continue to clone off of a clone. the clone of blueberry i have right now has already been flowered once and now its been revegged and its currently now flowering again. i might even reveg it and flower it again but i havent decided yet. it takes along time to reveg a plant. mine didnt show new growth for 3 1/2 weeks. peace.
 
i put them in between wet napkins in zip lock bag under my bed for a couple days then checked them saw them opening put them 1/8 in dirt then watered and kept under constant light.
