Are genetics best harvested/transferred by cloning the fruiting body rather than taking a spore print? #2

Question, are genetics best harvested/transferred by cloning the fruiting body rather than taking a spore print? Are you basically starting over with a print? I had this big guy yesterday and took a spore print before drying it. #2 squiggy comment: If you have a good fruit that you want more of, clone it. It's spores are good for playing with future generations/changes
