Reveg questions

[vitamin_green_inc]

been a coupl of weeks now, still no new proper leaves, just the weird veg going on....should I just up pot, cut some clones and flower them out? Should I wait for longer? Thanks everyone

Same question.

Mine are still throwing out weird leafs and not proper leaf sets.

Want more cuts but don't wanna mess it up/prolong it even more.

From the pictures it looks like it's on the verge of becoming somewhat normal again

I took clones deep into flowering once and it takes a long long time to see correct "veg" growth again. Just be patient and it Wil come.

also you can clone that plant it won't mess anything up atleast it didn't for me.

Okay, that's what I was wondering...if I top them or cut a clone off and root it will that clone automatically start growing "normal?" Them I could just toss the reveg?

Id wait till that sucker comes out of the funk. Cpl more weeks max. More light they get the faster they spring back

Expect re-veg to take around half the time they were in bloom. 8 weeks in bloom would result in about 4 weeks to re-veg back. You can take clones from flowering plants, I've have great success with clones taken at 7 weeks into bloom. Peace!!

Okay, thanks so much y'all. They aren't taking up space or anything I was just curious if they WOULD actually go back to normal because it had been so long. I love how easy it is too take care of them, I haven't added any nutes, just LC soilless mix recipe #1 with coco

Just to update, the one plant reverted back and has become a bush monster!

The other one is still just chilling but I just uppoted her to a 1 gallon Hempy...going to wait a week then throw her in flower...the bush monster is still in a 16 oz solo cup

Yea I had a nice Pineapple chunk that I loved but I accidentally dropped something on the only clone I had and killed it. So I took clones from the flowering PC about 4 weeks in, it took awhile first started with weird single leaves but now it like I mainline it it's a monster with branches everywhere and looks nothing like the original. I'm wondering if somehow cloning pretty deep into flower could slightly bring out or change the genetics a little. I know nothing about that field it just odd the 3 clones I took deep in flower are all now. Huge bushes nothing like the original.

It could but its extremely unlikely. More likely, the "genetics" haven't changed, only the plant's hormones have. Cannabis has different hormonal ratios during different stages of life, and they typically guide the plant's life cycle from veg to flower to death. But in the case of a reveg, we increase dark hours to 12 hrs (or whatever the photo trigger point) AND WE TRY TO KEEP THEM ALIVE. This is something that doesn't happen in the wild, at least very infrequently. So asking the plant to reveg requires a hormonal shift that reverse from its norm, and plants typically take a while to respond in a visible way.

For all annual plants like cannabis, shortened day (or longer nights) typically cause fruiting and then death. The ability to reveg is possibly a genetic remnant that allows the rare plant to survive mild winters, in very rare situations, to reproduce again.

Very good info

 

[vitamin_green_inc]

Hmm, interesting, so could you take that a bit further and say that Sativa dominant strains would be easier to reveg? Due to the fact that they are genetically/hormonally coded to live in such mild winters?

Going from the big gal to the small buds...will this work y'all? It's under 24/7 of about 70w actual CFL in my veg/clone chamber

Does cloning in flower effect the quality or yield at all from the stress? Nice plant tho!

Not that ive seen but as far as the crazy growth and extra branching, ive seen a plant almost refuse to stop budding after sexing for ten days. The hairs just showed barely and the plant came out but the cycle couldnt be stopped. Strange growth and single and tripple leaves. One leaf had one finger,cbut it was as wide as a mans hand. Cray cray, i know. Anyway, some plants wont reveg easily, that one went three months and wouldnt come back and finally had to be flowered. The good thing is that if you take clones from the newer or less mutated parts of the plant they should produce a normal plant. I have seen the strange ones and threes still carry on in the leaves but usually they figure themselves out by the first clone...provided you dont take it in flower and have to reveg it again lol

 

[bbradd]

So you keep the flowering plant you cut the clone off in flower. And put the clone back on veg cycle?

I believe it is mostly correct that sativas reveg more easily. I don't know if its because "they are genetically/hormonally coded to live in such mild winters".

That should work- remember to be patient. How's it looking now?

Negligibly. Not enough at least to not do it.

Yes, this^^^
