im not nescessarily doing it, i just love to learn and when i find a subject that interests me....lol
i ask stupid questions just so i know the answer to other newbs questions.lol
not to mention what pushed it is i was thinkin about how u normally clip at least 2-3 fan leaves from every cutting for cloning. so if u could also turn those 3 fan leafs into even 1 more clone with a 1 out of 3 chance, that could dramatically improve your grow and yield while inflicting the same damage and growth pause to the mother and original cutting. same cut to the mother to take clone, same cuts on clone to clear fan leaves...
if u cant notice i guess i like to get my worth out of every little thing.lol
