Trading clones for finished product

Hey, everyone, I was hoping you could help with a question. I have fellow grower interested in clones and I need finished product so was going to do some trading but not sure of how many clones say for a half-ounce of finished? Then do I give them right after it starts growing roots? after established in grow medium or after it starts reverting back to veg?
 
I was thinking around $5-10 but wasn/t sure because I've never bought clones before only seeds. So when you buy from dispensary the clones are established in medium correct? what stage are the clones in when time to sell? ike 1 week after roots start growing or do I wait longer? I have a mixture of veg and flowering mothers and yes monster cropping clones take a lot longer to root. I'm actually still trying to grow my first. She grew roots but just hasn't started growing yet like the ones from vegging mothers but its staying alive. I have learned patience is important when cloning
 
Clones in this locale are $15 for one, but if 6 are purchased the price comes down to $10 per clone. If using Rapid Rooters be sure you've got lots of roots protruding. Clones in the hood are in Rock wool cubes sitting in a solo cup. Yes monster cropping is like watching the mountains erode. An aeroponics cloner will make success more of a certainty. Lots of roots is your best bet. I have been placing the rapid rooter into baby food jars so I can monitor root formation. I know roots don't like light, but you can put a construction paper sleeve over the jar.
 
I have tried several methods with cloning so far and honestly I have had most luck using jars with a mix of soil and pebbles. I want to get a better cloning machine but my little aeroponics one is less successful than my jar. As far as time about how long on average before a flower clone will start growing new leaves? Any other tricks to it? I am still trying and waiting but definitely not as easy as veg clones. I have had 3 successfully start growing roots but just aren’t growing up top

    I recently got a seedling that was clipped off at the base of the stem by an insect to root. With Clonex, and rapid rooter it took some time, but not 2 weeks. I will have to say I was SHOCKED that it worked. As soon as I saw those roots poking out of the side of the rapid rooter I plopped it back into the dirt. Certainly glad I persevered, and tenaciously stuck to this rescue.

    Even in a cloner it takes some time. Photo is of the clones I took for monster cropping. Took much longer than I thought maybe because clones were in late flowering. Second photo is of "meet my leetle friend" the monster cropped clone.

      I usually do not grow in the basement, but since it is winter, and obviously can't grow outside, and because I refuse to heat my barn, I have no alternative. Everybody is going into the basement to bask under the CMH. That is of course after I nuke the area with plenty of insectic
 
It really depends on quality and supply/demand in your local area. After clones grow roots, they need to get established. After that, they should be ready for someone else to care for.
