Have you ever put flowering plant back into veg?

I have a plant that is pretty far into the flowering stage (50/50 white/amber pistils), and I think I may have accidentally re-triggered its veg state. The buds stopped maturing for about 2 weeks, and now they’re starting to grow tiny leaves without any trichomes.

Wondering if I should cut my losses and harvest the premature buds, or try to get it back to flowering...?

I have another plant in the same room that’s on a 20/4 light/dark schedule, so this might have thrown it off — rookie mistake.

Those light strips are very cool- did you just wire them up yourself?

The photo of the Indica is GSC male x Cannatonic = Girl Scout Tonic
The Sativa is Kali Mist male x Harlequin growing too tall, had to super crop it first 3 weeks into flowering.
The photo of the 3 nugs is GSC x Cannatonic cropped after flowering.
The photo with 2 nugs is GSC x Cannatonic cropped after 2 weeks into revegging.
The photo of reveg is GSC x Cannatonic is about 17-20 days into revegging a few days after I cropped it.

I know a guy who didn't harvest one of his out door plants and kept it over winter.
It grew into a monster the next year.

I revert back to veg after flower if I feel it is worthy to pollinate later or become a mother.

I never do it to re-flower for a harvest as it never is quite like the first In my experience.

all the above...

I'm a seasoned re-vegger. cut back the plant removing as much bud(ish) as possible while leaving the leaf. flush. dark period 24-48 hours. back on veg nutes and light
So, we planted our clones in the field already. If we cut back the buds from the plants in the field and they don't have a 24-48 hour dark period, what would happen? Would it even be effective?

Leave some small buds on there. That’s where all the growth is going to come from.

Why are your lights on 20/4
That’s your first mistake
And if your buds are not producing right it’s genetics. Cookie Fam has the best genetics on the market hands down. Maybe PM me and I can give you some info on how to acquire these genetics. It’s easier than you think.

I finally figured out how to grow low cost with success.

I'm going to toss all my plants back to veg, when they finished flowering from 12/12 to 18/6, and grow them 2 weeks in 18/6 before cropping them. I want to let keep them reveg for 4-6wks before flowering them again. I saw more immature buds growing from the bottom during the first week and after the 2nd week is when new small leave starts shooting out of the buds. I plan to crop almost everything off the plants, before new leaves starts shooting out of the buds, and just leaving the last node on a bud from each branch that I want to keep. New shoots will start growing from that tiny piece of bud left on there. I've already tried cropping after reveg for 2 weeks with some top shelf buds left on there. It made the nodes on the buds spread a little bit more and made the bud fluffier instead of being dense. The plant kept growing with no more thc production after a week, when new leaves shoots out there is no crystals on it. I didn't taste any difference in the quality of the bud except it was fluffier and you can smell it better after drying it.

Oh one important thing, I am growing "vegan organic" with Growers Gold indoor mix from Home Depot and homemade vegetable tea 7-1-4 that I make daily with my homemade 1605w LED lights setup. I have cut my cost down to $350 for building the 3 x 535w led lights, 3x3x3 & 3x3x5 panda film tent on 3/4" pvc frame, and 30 cents to make 6 gallons of veggie tea to feed them every other day. That's $4.5 a month on fertilizer and I get to drink the tea that I make for them but more concentrated lol. I turn 1 quart into 6 gallons. I don't need to flush my plants, there is no nutes in it. No snap, crackle, and pop when blazing up the buds at all. This is how I got away from flushing and killing my plants like before. I've only started growing vegan organic about 2 months ago, the bud taste sweeter, and the plant grew way better. I didn't even need to switch fertilizer from veg to flower. It's the same veggie tea I make for them daily, just more concentrated during flowering.

I will never use nutes again. It beats making more clones and killing my flowering plants. It takes 3-7 days to make clones and another 7-10 days to baby it. That's at least 2-3 weeks wasted to make a 6-10" baby plants and another 6-8wks for the stems and roots to get big. The way I'm growing now will save money and make my plant bigger each time I reveg, meaning more buds each time I crop. I've already made seeds, so my next mission is to see how many times I can reveg my plants before the quality goes down by growing vegan organic. Normally growers will switch mother plants after 1.5-2 years when they decrease in potency, I am hoping it's the same with F1 clones, and forget the mother plant lol. I will be able to reveg and crop each plant 3-5 times per year depending on the strains.

Also I did tried breeding a fully flowered plant just before putting them back into vegging. I was hoping to create seeds in veg but no success, the hairs stayed white. Next time I will try breeding 2-3 weeks before revegging.
