🌱 Can You Clone Autoflower Cannabis Plants?Updated 6 hours ago

While it’s possible to take cuttings from an autoflower plant, autoflowers are not ideal for cloning.

🕒 Why Cloning Autoflowers Doesn’t Work Well

• Autoflowers have a built-in life cycle that starts counting down from germination.

• A clone from an autoflower keeps the same “biological age” as the mother plant.

• This means your clone may go straight into flowering — or already be partway through — resulting in small, underdeveloped plants.

🌿 Best Option for Cloning

If you want to preserve genetics through cloning, photoperiod strains are the best choice. They stay in the vegetative stage indefinitely until you change the light cycle, giving clones plenty of time to grow before flowering.

💡 Quick Tip

For autoflowers, the best way to “repeat” a plant you love is to buy more seeds of the same strain rather than cloning.
