clone question

i know this may be a simple question, but anyway, what happens if instead of having a momma you just keep making clones of clones of clones of clones....plant veges for 3 weeks take clones then flower and start veging the clones....does something bad happen? clones get eventually weak?

Ur description/question is slightly confusing to me lol ... But to answer ur question; "Can u take clones of clones of clones of clones ... of clones?" ;)
Simply put - Yes u can ... I have done it lots and neva experienced negative effects (that i've noticed). Maybe some people have tho?

Mothers are an easier system if u have the space and equipment/experience tho.

Sweet - And welcome to the ICmag community! :)

I've been cloning the same strain now since '03, and I haven't seen any problems with it. I do keep mothers, but they're clones from clones etc.
 
thanks guys that is what i needed to know....i have very small veg area and would rather keep several strains in veg rather than a single bonsai momma....first shot is the veg chamber lit with two 70 watt hqi metals and two 13 watt cfl to balance out the spectrum a bit...clones are in tupperware in second shot but have since been given their own chamber....when my flower chambers are full i just clone and chuck to keep plant lines under 12 inches...
i think that keeping a constant vegging mother plant would actually be an easier route but i have such limited space and want to keep a couple lines going...
