Say a person has a couple 5.07 boudyo's and wants to make some
more plants out of one plant.
will those cuttings be just as good as the original plant?

Yes they would be clones of parent plant.

I often take the suckers off and plant them. All suckers should be removed if you are growing for size. Just bury the sucker leaving three inches out of the soil. It will stand up in 3 to 7 days.

this is why i like to start them so early, this allows you to plant several plants without wasting expensive seeds as tim said in another post.

i saw a diary last year cant remember who it was and it showed u take a water bottle cut it in half and then u cut up the side of it all the way to the top.
then u open it and put around the branch u r going to cut off at the bottom and fill with soil keep wet for a week or 10 days and plants will root ,then u cut off branch after it roots and plant in ground ,but remove plastic bottle first ,i tryed it it worked awsome they rooted really quick,i did wait till plant sucker got about a foot before i did it so when u cut it it is a foot tall , i planon doing it with some good seeds this year will post pics in my diary when i do!!! hope that helps!!! pizzapete
