Had a light leak before I took clones

Hey everyone
Originally set up to make clones
I had 10 berry bomb seeds got clean sweep , veg for 33 days before I switch to 12/12, at the time my temps in tent (cm90×60) were too low 50-60f with lights out so I added a little radiator :rolleyes:for full 10 days I didn't realise the little light that was coming off the switch .a red one at that :wall: like a dodo bird I went in side tent and this little red light felt like Amsterdam I don't know how I missed it. I was busy at this time juggling veg room flower room smoking pot anyhow was checking
sex for a least 2 weeks with no sign, ended up taking clones from all the plants anyways and sent the possible mothers into the larger tent to flower, it took another week for them to show sex , surprisingly I had nine mothers had taken 4 from each plant.
I didn't take the clones till after the light leak would these clones be slow flowering ? veg now w/24 lighting look healthily

Took the biggest n strongest which was 5 n put 4 them outside, due space , will flower the mums out and keep the clones going, heard it's best to flower the mother's after taking cuttings just in case something goes wrong with them down the line, they are under a diy cutters 8 cobs led light . first time i'm using this type of led;-) wish i had better plants for the set up :lol:

about 2 weeks ago when things were looking pear-shaped went out got more seeds in case these plants go belly up .dinafam blue cheese

not sure what to do whether to pull the mothers and flower the Clones.. or scratch that lot and flower blue cheese in 2 weeks or so ..:confused:
Any advice is appreciated
Ps over 300% growth from veg , some stretch there .

Your clones won't flower if they stay under a 24/0 light cycle. Whatever "blooming biomass" is already at them, they will discard that entirely (which then oftentimes falls easy prey to mold, rot) thus (revegged) "monster-cloning" is inferior to standard when cuttling is taken from a plant under 24h of light.

After root-formation your clones need a minimum of 3 weeks until you can send them into flower, before that time many plants will simpyl refuse to inititate flowering and well so, without a proper root fundament the harvest will be severely incapitated.

Send your mothers into flower. This also solves the potential future problem of height control with old mothers.

I am thinking about pulling the mother's reason being with others it was a experiment to start with, anyhow I got all these Clones that are ready to go into flower..
They look good strong ?the veg went well even though the mother's are shell shocked excuse the pun.
Mum's are currently in week 5 of flower and they look like they're entering the 3rd week visually. I guess the first two weeks of 12/12 the light leak from the red button on the radiator threw monkey Wrench in the floweringprocess they look it take another 5 weeks to finish, at the end of the grow buds probably be lite and puffy.. I may as well start the cuttins since I put them back into veg for 4+weeks, I am praying they're not going to turn out like their mothers then my experiment will be total failure..
i would like and i got a DIY light from cutters. Is not having Justice done to it with these plants thinking about pulling them. Like I was saying I have something like 25 + cuttings 9 a square metre in 12 litre pots. Last night I put 9 under 1 metre parabolic reflector run Maxi Bright beside mother's in flower room. They will get the first water tonight they look a bit shabby these are the pictures
from the cuttings I want to use now the mother plants that are in flower 5 weeks
9 plants put into flower .. advice on my cuttings that I put into flower 20170415_200838.jpg 20170415_200854.jpg 20170415_201017.jpg 20170415_201025.jpg
