Cloning through the Generations.

Is it possible for me to literary create an army of clones? Would i be able to keep on cloning the "mother" And create clones over and over again? Will this change the potency throughout the generation process? Or probably even make it stronger? As always appreciation given to the reader and the one whom replies.

yes you can but keep the mother happy and don't take to much off of her at one time.

no if you only get clones from the mother don't clone a clone or that could mess with the potentcy in a bad way and could mess up the plant.

potency is in genetics and how the plant is grow so i don't think so.

I don't have any mothers and I've been vegging clones then cloning their trimmings and so forth, so far I haven't noticed a difference?

From what I'm getting out of this, the real questions are: does a mother plant degrade over time? and can you clone of a clone of a clone of an etc.. ?
I've cloned clones and cloned them into mother plants. at least three or four generations, the plant does not seem to mind. I've heard of people going at least 20 generations without any issues. I'm so far convinced, but we'll see once I've done 20 generations of the same plant.
At the same time a friend of a family member was talking about how they just lost the mother plant that they had for 20 years. Not sure if they lost the clone of the mother or the actual 20 year old plant(it sounded like that,) but either way, I'd say your covered as long as you keep the mother plant in a healthy environment; clone it when in doubt. Some people may be sticklers over the clone of a clone, but I rarely think its actually an issue. I'm sure by the time it starts to degrade, you'll start to notice; even then you might just be tired of its buds.
I've only heard of theoretical genetic degradation over time, for the time being, I'm convinced it's just one of those urban legends that gets passed around among those 'elite' growers.
