if you have enough plant matter, what your point of cloneing if you do it to early you looking at 2-4 plant but if you veg for like 2 wks - 1 mth under 24 hr light you can have hundered of plants

youll know whin the time is right

I only have room for maybe 2-3 more plants. That was my idea behind doing it early... I was thinking at like 25 days clipping a few new babies off.

when u say 2 week old female, u mean 2 weeks from showing sex or do u know its a female cus its a clone?

If its old enough to be 2 weeks from preflowers I'd say its safe

I don't believe plants gain any resistances or strength as they get older so a young plant should besides root mass be as tough as an old plant, and if this plant has branches worth being cloned then its root mass is probably decent size also. Never tried clipping a branch that small though so not sure how well it would root. (Could be the same since though the leafs are smaller there's less demand for energy.)

Yeah that's what I was thinking as it is my understanding that a seedling is less prone to stress in comparison to a more mature plant.

2 week seedling is pretty young though. I'd wait a bit longer myself. In my experience young plants are more sensitive especially at only 2 weeks
