How does one go about choosing clones and getting the best possible genetics?

I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.
You don't choose the best clones while they are still on a plant. You pick a good looking mother from seed or clone that has vegged out good and take new clones to root. Then grow those out and they should carry the same traits as the plant they were cut from. If you have a strain or particular phenotype that you want to grow continuously, set up a veg only area with your mother plants under 24/0 so they can just keep bushin out and continuously take clones to replace the plants you harvest.
Its a little more common, I think, to take clones of all of your phenotypes, wait until you harvest, and then determine which clones would be great mothers based upon which one has the best final product, since that matters much more so than how they grow during vegetative state.

Word. Its a waste of superior genetics to choose based on vegetative growth.
