I should have checked the manual :-(
(info "(org) Repeated tasks")
Last paragraph points to
`C-c C-x c' (`org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift')
Clone a subtree by making a number of sibling copies of it. You
will be prompted for the number of copies to make, and you can
also specify if any timestamps in the entry should be shifted.
This can be useful, for example, to create a number of tasks
related to a series of lectures to prepare. For more details, see
the docstring of the command `org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift'.
