You are a fair way off for taking cuttings from this plant. The branches need to be at least 6 inches long and with 4-5 nodes on them. The intended branches need a good length of stem on them before they become candidates for your cuttings with about2-3 inches of clear stem between the lower nodes to become the buried section that will grow the roots, Depending on how your plant grows, those branches might take another 2-3 weeks before they are long enough to be used for making your cuttings/clones. Also, try and remove any fallen leaves from the tops of the pots, otherwise with the moisture from the substrate and the warmth of your tent, this will provide the perfect habitat for moulds and fungus to grow. Also also, try and leave as many healthy green leaves on your plant so they can do their job of making energy for your plant to grow her fastest. Less leaves = less energy less growth. Hope this helps,.... Organoman.

If your goal is to get cuttings sooner rather than later. If you top your plant... it will break the apex dominance and your side branches will boom with vigor. Giving you fair sized cuttings much quicker than waiting for the plant to spend energy at the side branches. Good luck fam.
