Cloning for first time

I took my first ever clones lastnight although I realized after I done them, I ended up trimming
every piece of fan leaf about a quarter off. Will this affect my clones? I didnt even realize till I was
finished. The mothers were just showing signs of sex so maybe it could be a good thing to get it to
revert quicker? Heck if I know, it was my first time. Any inupt please?

Most people, including myself, trim large fan leaves in half for clones. The reason for this
is to decrease transpiration (sweating) from large leaves. This helps prevent wilting. I took
~30 clones from plants I sexed with 7 days 12/12 and the clones still kick out pistils. Why?
Because clones are the same "age" as the age of the mother they're taken from. Don't worry
about "reverting" the clones, unless they were taken several weeks into flower. As long as the
mother plant is sexed as female, and your clones root, you should be good to go. :)
