I took some BW cuttings a few weeks ago, the ones that made it are looking pretty damn good (even if I do say so myself), but for some reason my mother plant has spontaneously gone into flower (dunno why, cos its in the grow room that the others are, under the same light regime, but it's definitely gone into flower, it's covered in pistils). Now considering the fact that the clones are still ickle, and the nebula & janis need at least another few weeks vegging, while the mother is a bretty big plant, I've decided to let her flower so I get a bit of smoke a bit earlier. I recall readint that you shouldn't use clones as mothers - is this set in stone, or could I get away with using one of these clones as a new mother (only ask cos I've used all my BW seeds, but kinda fancy trying some more proper grows of it now I sort of know what I'm doing).

Cheers.

Never heard of that one myself Boo....

So it's OK to use a clone as a mother ? I'm sure I read that when you clone it weakens the genetics or summat (but then again, that doesn't actually seem to make much sense, I probably read it on marihemp or somewhere similar...)

Not really, but swinging a hardy annual, in and out of, 12/12 can really fuck it up. It don't work.

Think of your libido, Booj, and then confuse it alot.

I don't have one any more - I used to and it wasn't so much confused as totally baffled .
