I agree. With cloning, My LA Con is going to be here a very very very long time.

talking about clones, can someone explain to me why everytime I see someone growing clones at least one of them seem to have a defficiency. Why would it have a defficiency if its sisters are doing just fine?
and its not necessarily the biggest or smallest plant in the canopy that has the defficiency

sometimes if you keep em long enough they will slowdown on their vigor but i have moms from 5 years ago took as clones
 
Random useful fact of the day:

The naval oranges that you buy in the store today, are clones from a mutant orange tree grown on a Brazilian monestary during the 1800's.

The fruit divides early on to give you the smaller undeveloped Siamese twin orange inside. This has something to do with the orange sex chromosomes, my memory gets fuzzy here, and is why navals do not produce seeds.

Bananas too. Nona the regular bananas you eat come from seeds. Your average banana that you eat is a clone too. I been eatinem since I was a kid. I dont think theyr any worse then when I started eatinem. Theyre still prety good if ya ask me. I didnt know bout the navel oranges but I been eatin them since I was a kid too. I aint noticedem gettin crappier and crappier. Well that kinda puts the "Repeated cloning causes genetic degradation" myth to rest dont it?
