Revegging

[GramMeGrows]

Hi 420 Friends!! Hope you are all doing well in your corners of the globe.

I'm finally on the home stretch of my 1st grow
Looks like harvest day is going to be my Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!

I'm doing a Super Poor Grammies Grow. Spent about $30 total. Never expected the results I got from bagseeds and CFL's so I didn't bother to clone them. Now I'm kicking myself for it. In the last week one of the ladies has showed her true colors (purple) and super frostiness and I want to reveg her for cloning. I've seen information on here about how to do it, but of course now that I'm looking for it, I can't find it.
Anyone know where I can find that info or tell me how to do it?

When you harvest her, make sure to leave some growth/underdeveloped flowers and small buds...

Then put her back into your veg room under 24hrs of light and feed with a veg nutrient.

and make sure to keep us posted. I was also wondering on how successful this is

hey there brotha!!!

I am going to be trying out a reveg on my GDP in about 1 - 2 weeks... I am going to give this a test run... this is the read that I have found for this...

REGENERATION

It is possible to harvest plants and then rejuvenate them vegetatively for a 2nd and even 3rd harvest. A second harvest can be realized in as little as 6-8 weeks. Since the plant's stalk, and roots are already formed, the plant can produce a second, even third harvest of buds in a little more than half the time of the original harvest. When harvesting, take off the top 1/3rd of the plant. Leave most healthy fan leaves in the middle of the plant, cutting buds off branches carefully. On the lower 1/3rd of the plant, take off end flowers, but leave several small flowers on each branch. These will be the part of the plant that is regenerated. The more buds you leave on the plant, the faster it will regenerate. Feed the plant some Miracle Grow or any high nitrogen plant food immediately after harvest. When you intend to regenerate a plant, make sure it never gets too starved for nitrogen as it is maturing, or all the sun leaves will fall off, and your plant will not have enough leaves to live after being harvested.

Harvested plants can come inside for rejuvenation under continuous light or are left outside in Summer to rejuvenate in the natural long days. It will take 7-14 days to see signs of new growth when regenerating a plant. As stated before, and in contrast to normal growth patterns, lower branches will be the first to sprout new vegetative growth. Allow the plant to grow a little vegetatively, then take outside again to reflower. Or keep inside for vegetative cuttings. You now have two or three generations of plants growing, and will need more space outside. But you will now be harvesting twice as often. As often as every 30 days, since you have new clones or seedlings growing, vegetative plants ready to flower, and regenerated plants flowering too.

Regenerating indoors can create problems if your plants are infected with pests. It may be best to have a separate area indoors that will not allow your plants to infect the main indoor area. An alternative to regenerating indoors is to regenerate outdoors in the Summer. Just take a harvest in June, then allow the plant to regenerate by leaving some lower buds on the plant, and leaving the middle 1/3rd of the plant's leaves at harvest. Feed it nitrogen, and make sure it gets lots of sun. It will regenerate all Summer and be quite large by Fall, when it will start to flower again naturally.​

I am regenerating a plant that was grown from bag seed and about to start my 3rd harvest. I am using hydro so I am not sure about soil but can't imagine a huge difference. I flush the last full week of flower before I take her down and like the previous post suggests you will want to leave about a 3rd of the lower growth (usually small buds and such that you can actually pluck off later). This is a great way to super-crop for your next grow as well! I also trimmed the root ball just because it was everywhere and I figured I had nothing to lose so you may even want to re-pot for more root growth. The new growth can be ugly at first; deformed leaves, three leaves, strange shapes...lol...but growth is what you want and it stabilizes in a few weeks. Then its back to business as usual; faster than cloning and I have not noticed any decrease in potency. By the way, once it has stabilized and you get "normal" growth...you can always clone.

High HappyGroLucky,

Thanks for sharing that information with us. Are you going to be starting a journal for our members to follow? I would like to watch this take action for future grows. If so, please feel free to start up a journal here, The Grow Room - Grow Journals

Thanks again,

 

[HappyGroLucky]

Very welcome. Haven't really thought about a journal much but would probably be a good idea; as the name implies I think I have been really lucky in this en-devour and have been blessed with a hardy plant. As stated earlier this is my third harvest from my single female that survived my first DWC (which was a total CFL DIY project), just to see if my wife and I could do it....lol.
