I’ve looked for some info regarding this but I’ve come up empty handed. Is this a thing? Will it be of diluted strength? Just seeing if anyone has any thoughts on this
what cloning method do you use so that I can switchI'm growing a pre-98 bubba cut that has been cloned off clones off clones for over 20 years. Still grows big and beautiful, and it still smells, tastes and smokes like I remember.

I just take cuttings from my plants when they're about 7 days into 12/12.what cloning method do you use so that I can switch
don't have room for mothers
As long as plants are kept healthy you'll be fine still doing WW from years ago lol, just periodically check for pests and fungus as you should anyways!I’ve looked for some info regarding this but I’ve come up empty handed.

No, clone is a exact genetic copy of its parent plant, be that plant a clone or from seed. We do this by the thousands and rarely see issues but limit cuts to 5 flower cycles and start new mothers , from seed.I’ve looked for some info regarding this but I’ve come up empty handed.

I think that is the exact route I’m going to takePersonally I grow a plant out take a couple cuttings to root and then flower the plant it came from once one of the cuttings root. Rinse and repeat. I don’t keep any mothers as they are always flowered. Done this for years.
Lol agreed with ya bro! Seed to flowerI've heard every argument about this for years. I think it came from people making copies of copies of cassette tapes and someone assumed it must be true for clones, too. Lmao. Yes you can absolutely clone a clone of a clone of a clone of a clone, until you get tired of that strain and throw it away, if you want. It won't lose "vigor" over time if the clone was taken properly in the first place, and as long as the growing conditions are the same, will put out the same end product and quantity.
I like to keep a seed bank of every one of my strains though, so I don't have to keep growing it forever. May come in handy, too, if the end of the world comes or something.
Not to change the subject but if you want to hear a debate. Seeds vs. Clones - Which is better... FIGHT
