Accidently revegged... advice needed.

[SmokinErb]

So I've got several plants that I THOUGHT were 5 weeks in flower. Recently I'd noticed some odd looking development, but just attributed it to stretch....

Well, apparently at some point in time I bumped my timer from "timer" to "on," and my light has been running 24/0... apparently for quite some time now...

3 of these plants revegged for sure, 2 of them aren't far behind. So my question is.... if I put these girls back in flower... with flower clusters all over them... are they going to hermie like crazy?

Does this essentially just re-set the flowering clock? I've never revegged anything before, intentionally or accidentally.

They're in 3 gallon pots.. was considering transplanting into 5's and re-flowering. But I do have clones of everything.. so i could just run those.

Screws up my perpetual run, for sure.

I had a similar incident a couple of seasons ago. I just reflowered mine, but I wasn't real happy with the results. It'll take a couple of weeks to get them reflowering and thefirst buds will be useless. If your clones are big enough, I'd run them instead. Best of luck, whatever you decide. I switched to digital timers, my problem was mechanical failure. I also check the grow once in a while during dark phase just to be sure...

Thanks for the feedback, brother!

Hit up the chat room as well, and I'm opting to cull these girls and run the clones. Just wasn't sure if it would hurt or not because people DO re-veg and flower their re-vegged plants.

This is different though, which is why I thought I'd ask. Thanks again!

Just toss them back into flower...They Should start to flood there cells with flowing hormones in no time..

I also check everyday to make sure lights are on and off when there suppose to be. I think allot of us have had lighting accidents with timers. I just picked up the Woods digital outdoor dual outlet.. I put this one online as soon as I got it. It does not need to be so heavy duty Im only switching a relay on/off to my power center. I like good quality gear. I might get less failures with better equipment thats how I look at it. Good timmers are hard to find.

Yeah man, I've got 2 timer incidents with these Bikers.

New timers, ya see? The 15-minute-interval analog timers, from a digital timer (which melted). Well initially I had it set for a 15-minute lights-on period at both 6 am and 6 pm. figured that one out pretty quick, and pulled ALL of the tabs up. Still, went on for long enough to completely disrupt my 5-week harvest schedule.

Well there's also a switch on the side. "On" which has power going through it all the time, or "timer" which is whatever the timer is set to. Well it's very easy to slide. I'm 85% positive that this is a result of gravity pulling it down to "on." So these revegged.... and that's 2 disruptions caused by these damn timers, with this same plants.

I do depend on these harvests, and a heavily seeded crop is absolutely useless to me.

Putting another round of testers in flower tonight, anyway. Just upsetting because I FINALLY (after much trial and error) got it set-up so I should be harvesting every 5 weeks instead of 10 weeks. And again, I'm left with a half empty/useless cab. So another 10 weeks to flower.

Frustrating, for sure. Two consecutive 10-week harvest windows, harvesting only half of my cabs potential. I think getting back on schedule now is more important to me than anything. Lookin' like the biker clones are gonna get a 5-week veg from today and then flowered to get it all back on schedule.
