I have a lot to learn about clones. Thanks. Yes, I meant further up the plant. I had no idea they were taken post flip. I assume you take them right before you see a budlet then, ideally? A week after the flip, eh?Not sure if by "north" you mean further up the plant or not, but monstercrop clones are taken after flip, usually by more than a week. Those will tend to through out a lot more side branching than one taken in veg.
Doesn't mean you can't get great side branching from clones in veg though so don't @ me!
