What Are Cannabis Clones? In biology, a clone generally means an organism produced asexually, genetically identical to the original organism from which it came. For plants including cannabis clones, it’s much simpler and usually referred to as cuttings (or cuts) – the act of cutting a branch from a pre-flowering plant to make an entirely new, genetically identical plant. Cannabis clones are made by clonal propagation, also known as vegetative propagation or asexual reproduction, a well-established process of generating new plants. Instead of reproducing sexually through pollination to produce seeds, clonal propagation involves removing the vegetative plant parts from the parent, to form the starting material for a new plant. This makes original and new plants genetically the same, and therefore they have the same phenotype. Although environmental factors will influence a plant’s phenotype, cannabis clones are generally an assured way to preserve and transfer the most revered and
