How many times have you Re-Vegged a plant??? - Cannabis Growing Questions - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

LaylowClamBaker · 07-08-2004, 11:01 PM

In Ed's guide it states that plants can be re-vegged two, three or possibly more times. Personally I have done it one time with two plants and noticed no loss in potency or vigor. I had to tear down grow and couldn't run the third time thru. Has anyone done it more than twice and what are your thoughts on this? In the guide it states that "a regenerated plant produces the same amount of vegatative growth in 45 days that takes a plant started from seed 75 days." Also how does this method compare to pulling a clone and starting from there? I have no expierence with clones and am wondering what you guys think compared to re-vegging. My guess is since the re-veg has a better root structure that it would be a faster grower but am un-sure. Come on big dogs what do you think?????

I have never had 1 ounce of luck reveging.
Ive tried many a time and still came up short.
But i will preveil someday im sure of that.

do you cut the main stalk all the way down to the first set of leaves? or just cut off buds or what?

thus far, i've just chopped the main stem and tossed the plant back into the veg room, have had 50% success doing this... but the only reason why i did this was to make a mother, so far it's been about 2 weeks , and i see some pretty nice growth on the stem.

clone = ~2 weeks to root and maybe another week to veg, then into flower.

re-veg = 2 weeks to START growing foilage back at a decent pace, then another month or longer to get it ready for flowering.

clone is definately faster.

imo the only reason to reveg a plant would be to make a bonzai mother, or mother up a plant that you may have forgot to take a cutting of before it started putting on buds.

......it says" To re-gen a plant,some leaves and bud material are left on the stem as the plant is harvested. The stem may be left at nearly its full length,or cut back to only a few inches from the ground. The more stem with leaf material left on the plant, the faster it regenerates, as new growth developes at the sites of the remaining leaf material." I left two nodes on mine with all leaf AND bud material on the plant and cut the stem a little above there. It worked the one time I tried but I cautioned on the side of leaving more than less. I think the plant must have all parts on it including bud on the part you are re-vegging.

ok well here goes my citral reveg... hope she takes

deZerTomB · 07-08-2004, 11:49 PM

i did it 1 time a couple years ago cause I didn't have a clone. She took a couple weeks to grow again, then I got some clones, then a few weeks later hermied out & I pulled it. I recloned those mommas many times with no problem before I finally found a better replacement. Got voted off the island hehe.

I would think that it would not grow tall real fast again after being topped & revegged because the roots are root bound in the pot & you just basically topped it. A bigger pot into reveg would help but it's still gonna be bushier & slower growing because of the topping.

So I would take take clones even at 2 or 3 weeks flower from the bottom shoots rather than reveg personally but I have more extra room in flower to play with than veg. Maybe if you had extra space in veg as opposed to flower.

But it's good to do it at least once to see for yourself.

Rambling again & I was gonna keep it short. hehe.

.........sounds like this is only good if your clones didn't take the first time......... anyone else?

ive revegged plants many times , they just need some decent stock left on them and perhaps a repot , reflowering them will require adding new soil or putting in the ground outdoors , but its no probs to do ....

Wally, what is your process.
You have cut it down to whatever...do you water it, limited nutes, full nutes
Total darkness for a period or right into light?
If light 18/6 or 24.
Full or cutting clone light.
I too have been MISERABLE at regen but I got a plant that I NEED, NEED, unnerstand, REALLY REALLY NEED to get back and make some clones!
ANY help would be greatly appreciated. I am 1 week from harvest!

hi niemand , after that plant has flowered leave a few decent banches and simply pop it back to 18 hrs , no biggie , as long as you have some decent stock left on the plant itll reveg ,, it can take some time , but before long youll see new shoots erupting from the buds , it can work popping them outdoors from indoor aswell as long as the hours are right ... has worked over and over for me but can be slow to take ....
