Clones from flowering plant

I have taken some clones from flowering plants and they rooted fine and are in solo cups. They are under 24hrs light under CFL's and are auto flowering. They are not root bound as they are not long in the solo cups.

Im pretty sure they will pull out of it but Im just wondering if anyone else has run into this and how you got around the issue?

I often take clones from flowering plants during the first two weeks stretch. They root fine then start revegging and often throw pistils and weird growth. They can take a month or so to snap out of it, but once they do normal growth will resume.

This method is most effective when taking clones from seed plants for selection purposes as you can keep them manageable in small pots and they don't grow much whilst the seed plants are finishing up. By the time you've harvested the seed plants and are making selective decisions, the clones are just about ready to pot on and are still a manageable size.

And a bonus with flowering clones. Once they root and adjust, BOOM the branching power is simply amazing :)

Man,funny you say that....ive noticed from pulling clones of FLWing plants that were say in for 10-15days already ,as compared to snagging a few that were still in veg....the FLW ones were way more tighter spaced branch wise,compared to the ones i took from the ones that were in vegg...

im glad someone else notices this as well...:tiphat::plant grow:
