Default Use of the term "clon" in horticulture

The term is "clone" and basically just means taking a cutting to produce a
clone of the original plant with the same genetics and attributes.


Not always and not usually. Clone of plant matter is generally done by
selective tissue culture. It's a bit different than taking a cutting.
