treating the whole plant as a clone to fix a boo boo

Hi all, i have a dilema that im not to proud of. I have over crowded pots with plants before i researched i just put them in the pots. It started as 37 between 4 big pots sorry guys plant cruelty i know and will never do it again but its down to 20 and all are looking female besides a suspicous sativa dominant. They are bag seeds and outdoors it was started to see if i could do it. I have plenty of seeds for trial and error and good conditions for growing i have 2 maybe 3 months of veg season left. If i were to trimm 75% of leaves and used hormone product prayed to god a couple times and sing to them at night would they produce roots before dying? I have stacked more dirt up about 3 inches of stem and am seeing new root growth if i dug below these and snipped, then made incisions up the stem that is not growing root, dipping in hormone gel/powder will it grow before it dies? They are hardy plants dogs have chewed dug at them had to replant them ive nute burnt [straight urea] suns burnt them over trimmed them even slapped one around a bit only to be 9 finger slapped back lol so yea tough. I've tried seperating them but roots look tangled and there are ones im willing to sacrifice to save others but am concerned of dead roots causing problems for live roots. Most have pistils showing so most are at pre flower all different genetics just bag seeds saved over time. Does anyone have experience? or even a theory on this thanks in advance oh and do i have to worry about root bound killing them every one heres a legend.

wow, this has to be the longest sentence I have ever read. Not to be mean but trying to read this just wore me out. I can't even offer advice as I am sure what I even read. uuhhhh , start grow over. One plant per pot.

Just let them do their thing, flower them, harvest and then do it differently the second round

I thought you were just being a pussy and I'd go ahead and read it and answer. But, but, I just couldn't.

Ok i fixed puncuation and grammer now can you read this as im running out of time. I moved one bucket of plants to the ground [the one with least amount of plants] 2 in total and the roots were every where [filling the bucket] im not being smart about editing i read it after posting and totally agree was hard to read sorry lol.

Thats was the plan but am noticing [really] slow growth on some but others are powering, All look luscious though i dont know was trying to see if it was possible to do this plant transfer like a clone with some roots remaining. Ill do it to one and post results if u can get a branch to root surely the whole plant would given it didnt have a lot of foliage for the roots to feed just wanted to see if it was possible before i did it. I did learn about using fullstops and commars though lol thanks guys

From what I understand all you need to do is re pot, the plants to there own containers, shoot down to Bunnings and get some 15 liter tomatoes grow bags and some 40 liter or so of shit cheap Bunnings tomato mix, don't bother messing with hormones or nute crap, just repot real quick, water well and keep them in dim light for half a day or overnight, then to full sun(a very dangerous word in Oz) tomorrow, any roots torn or otherwise will self repair or be air pruned to say the least, use 3 meters of chicken wire to keep the dogs at bay .....good luck
