put your clone out in april and it revegged?

what causes this and how do you prevent it?

shit so what should i do about this problem?? ill check her in a couple days to make sure she's alright.. and theres no bottom branches to cut clones from her, they all died off when she revegged so when i topped her there was only 2 main stalks on her afterwards..

and about revegging. when i put my clone out she was already starting to flower so she revegetated since i put her out so early.. couldnt really prevent it but it slowed me down a bit.

any more advice?? :joint:

again...the fishing line has to come off. you could have gotten away with it if it was something softer but the fishing line will cut threw ur stem like a razor blade. like someone else said try the cut it with a xacto knife. you could even cut on top of the line where it is on the plant (very carefully) and with the pressure from your stems will probably break it off. **will be a big mistake to leaving that on**

Imagine trying to do something with a tight string around your stomach, you wont perform well and eventually could seriously damage you.

dont wanna keep on this just making you aware of the harm you could or will be doing to your plant

ok so i just went out and checked on her.. she seams to be really responding well to the late LST on the main 2 branches, lots of new growth in just a few days!! i got rid of the fishing line, burned it off but i didnt harm the plant..

i found some string thats perfect and tied the 2 main branches opposite ways, pretty close to ground level.. made sure the string was loose on the branches but i bent them close to the ground, a little more than completely horizantal.. the string is an off-white color but i didnt use much so its not really visible..
ill check up on her in a week or two and she should be great, budding soon!! :joint:

pics coming soon i took some more today to show the growth.... thanks guys, any more advice would be great

shes really liking the LST with a lot of branching on all the nodes!! wish i tied the 2 branches down earlier.. i also pinched the newest growth (topped) off of the 3rd nodes up the branches off of both main stalks (topped twice total), is it too late in the outdoor season at 43N to be topping my plant??

... i figured she'd be good since she has a good 2 more weeks of vegetive growth to branch out and grow more before she starts budding. pics soon :D

i dont know they like the sweetness??

no they dont :muahaha:
i suggest you stop, fruit moulds and you dont want mould spores around your weed do you, leave the fruit for the birds, which also eat bugs and snails from around your plant.

it was just a little special touch i didnt expect much effect and im sure it wont be much of a problem..

anyways... i checked on here again today. some more branching out since the lst which is good, but the top of one of the branches i tied down (newest node where the top of the branch was) snapped right off and that stalk was aiming towards the sky.. :eek:
i only lost the top node maybe 2 nodes, and tied her down by the remaining top stem to hold her for now, probably wont hold the branch down.

... i dont see how this happened since i changed the fish line to regular string/twine to tie the branches down, but that makes it 3 times i topped her (last time on accident) within the last week!! ill go back tommorow or the next day to re-tie the broken branch down good

i wanted to top her a couple more times before flowering started, but with this broken branch i think more topping would slow her down too much with less than two weeks before she starts budding.. what do you guys think?? :joint:
..pics coming soon
