put her on 24/0 or 18/6 under a cfl or floros or something, and a few days later re-pot into a smaller container. should take a month or so

How old is the plant? Two Months Old? Shouldn't really be flowering on you. 24/0 The plant is already in VEG.
 
It was prolly stressed from being root bound and started to flower. I have seen it in my own GR.

Repot em and hit em with a nice veg feed (nitrogen being the key to veg).....maybe even pick off a calyx or two. They will come back.

Lights def on for 24/0.

i took the cutting in early flower last fall.it had preflowers all this time,but now its starting to go full out.so i should keep her at 24/0?i thought that 18/6 might be better or even 20/4.it might be getting rootbound now.I have to keep her,she did awesome last year,pound plus per plant,awesome bag appeal,fruity taste and smell and the potency was real nice......and NO MOLD!!!its called warrior(cali indica/mango)

I have done some re-vegging. Didn't see any growth for about a month, then the plant sprouted weird looking Ivy leaves. Things leveled off at about 6-7 weeks. Hope this helps.

Not much more you can do if you already have it on a 24/0 cycle besides keep the N ratio up and make sure you are not root-bound.

I was doing a search to see how long re-vegging would take when I came across this thread. I have one right now that's been under a 24/0 cycle for about two weeks that I need to re-veg for a mother after I had to shut down a grow. It seems to be stuck in-between veg and flower at the moment: it is growing new shoots but they have a lot of pistils/stigmas and funky looking trichome covered leaves. I am trying to find out how long it takes to revert back to a full-blown veg state?????

Leave it under 24 hours light, expect some whirling as well as fully formed buds on the bottom of the plant. Be patient, soon youll get new shoots (spears), then trifolate and so on. Meanwhile, go ahead and clone the new single leafed shoots as soon as long enough if necessary. They clone just fine, and they'll continue to revert to veg.

ArcticBlast has made two exellent points. First, repot into a smaller pot. If you leave the plant in the pot it flowered in, it won't continue to grow roots, and rootgrowth always comes before top growth. Second, he says that genetics has a heavy hand, some plants are very hard to reveg. I've tried different (longer) light periods with reluctand reveggers but that doesn't seem to help much. The main thing seems to be to get the roots growing again. The best way to do that is rootprune so that bottom matches top and pot into a smaller pot with fresh mix. Forget a time schedule, some plants will sprout new growth in a week, other genetics may take three months!

your really right about that cause I have been reading alot of threads about how it takes long to reveg and mine started revegging really quick and growing pretty fast and really bushy it's really pretty lol even the weird mutated growth is interesting to watch lol oh and I revegged 3 plants 1 hindu skunk and 2 unknown sativa dominant plants and the sativa dominant plants revegged quite a bit quicker then the hindu skunk but they are all petty much going through the same stages as in mutated leaves and then lots a shoots then normal leaves making it really bushy but yes I did repot and cut the roots back quite a bit but they seem to be ok with it and appreciate the new organic soil
