Low strength... think about it... the plant is left with only few leaves and a small ball of roots... too much feeding will cause nute burn, just like it would in a seedling.

Yeah, leave the bottom 4 stems, 2-3 leaves on each and 2-3cm of buds, remove 60-70% of roots, keep it on 24/0 and in 1 month or so it will reveg. The yeald is a bit smaller. For more info, do a search.

The ability to Re-Vegetate is one of the Cannabis species' most amazing tools!
Remember to keep the following things in mind when attempting to Re-Vegetate:
1. During harvest leave as many fan leaves as possible and a few lower branches or flowers on the plant.
2. Re-pot your plant into a slightly larger pot than it flowered in, making sure to trim a small amount of root mass and soil from the bottom of the pot as well as spraying the remaining root mass with SuperThrive or another shock & rooting supplement.
3. Give your plant a light feeding of vegetative nutrients after Re-potting.
4. Use an initial photoperiod of 24 / 0 with 6500k spectrum florescent lighting until the plant's old flowers begin to stretch themselves out into new shoots, this is the sign new vegetative growth has begun!

i'm new at this and caught in a delima ? I am 17 days into flowering and some say prune the hell out of the plants so they get light all over and others say leave them alone they need leaves for buds to grow. Now what I feel like doing is waiting another 2 weeks then prune the areas where small buds are not receiving light. Whats your take on this situation. For a pro it's an easy solution

Pruning has its advantages and disadvantages. If you're growing normally (not scrog, supercropping, topping, etc) pruning is not well advised. Later during the flowering the plant will use the nutes stored in the leaves to pump them into bud production... so practically by pruning, you're stealing valueable nutes, thus lowering bud production...
I always prefer a different approach... if you know you'll get bad light penetration go scrog, supercrop, lst or bend your plants...

As the good Doctor stated, pruning during flowering is almost never a good idea! The only materials which you should trim during flower are lower "sucker" branches very near ground level, and those fan leaves which have been completely drained of resources by the plant. You can easily tell which fan leaves are draining and when they're finished, they begin to show signs of macronutrient deficiencies, usually the pale yellow most associate with Nitrogen deficiency, and when the yellow has reached the leaf vein, it is time to trim. Always remember to trim with scissors from the stem, pulling fan leaves (especially large feeder leaves), from their stalks can seriously stunt the node associated with that leaf.

Thanks for the reply...... Instead of pruning then i will tie paper clips and get some branches out of the way to allow light to pass thorugh as much as possibleWHAT THE DOC & PROFFESSOR SAID.....
thanks doc
