i have cloned from flowering a bunch of times both in third and fourth week (and this time around i just took a snip today in 5th week, but obv have no idea how that will do)
problem is… its slow (for it to reveg) and its low success rate. for example, right now out of my 5 strawberry headbands i took 2 snips from each from each plant in week 4, and the two cuts from plant 1 and 3 have rooted. 2, 4, and 5… we’ll see. from my 2 smart moves, 1 has already rooted.
i see better results with under developed, young, top, and/or new growth.
the rest you prob already know… antimicrobial, rooting agent, all that, not needed but might help.
