yeah she looks about the right size/age to start taking cuttings. just start from the bottom and work your way up

Hey man. Uhhh i love to clone and have a few mothers of my own. Yea she is ready for one or two cuttings. I like to let my moms fill out a little before i cut so i can take like 10-12 per mom.You prolly know that she will be a little shocked from the cuts but will grow back more bushy for more clones. Take one and see how the baby does. small CFL works great for clone lights. Man i love keeping your favorite strains around.

Good luck Respect.

Let it get bigger before you clone that little girl as she will be able to give you more clone cuttings at one time.

i've never cloned before but i pretty much have it figured out(i think!) should i veg the clones in my window sill out of direct sunlight in a solid color cup holding the clippings in with saran wrap or should i peat pod the cuttings and use a humidity dome, opening the humidity dome several times a day to allow moisture to escape? i've seen it done both ways but want to do it the correct way!

I have a 40 watt cfl light two of my clone domes. I honestly would do both ways and experiment. I have done both and have success both ways. Just remember to give them time as they are babies and take little while to develop. Spray underside of leafs. I have also cloned straight into dirt with success but prefer rockwool cubes. Also i personally hate saran wrap, its a bitch to work with. I cut a large water bottle in half and use those for my potted clones. I also think that humidity is key for those little ladies, so dome or bottle is my suggestion.

Good luck and respect

for 2 1/2 months of vegging, it looks kinda small. i would wait longer before taking clones since the plant doesnt seem like it has much to spare.

of course this is just my personal opinion.

when i cloned, i used saran wrap over a plastic cup and put the cutting in a rock wool at the bottom of the plastic cup and sprayed the cutting a few times a day.
keeping high humidity is important.
