Re-Vegging After Harvesting Your Baby

[stinkbudd1]

Dude padrone you left SO much bud on your lady, why?
And nice clones, they look like the surface of your dirt is a crust of perlite.
Try using perlite at about 1/4-1/3 of the potting soil next time to avoid this.

Sorry bro you may be thinking or my girls witht the white all over the top of the soil? that was done because of a bad infestation with gnats when i started this re-veg and i am glad to say they are all gone now due to fly sticky paper and sand coverage i can now remove the sand just been kind of lazy....

 

[C.Indica]

Oh I just left out the name stinkbud, I knew they were yours.
Makes sense, I got gnats too but I'm too lazy for this. I'd rather use praying mantis.
But the plants with the gnats are just living on the ground by a window.
These are ladies that I don't care about. They will go outside and I will never see them again until harvest.
Either they live or die, but I'm not wasting lights on them.

 

[stinkbudd1]

Hey man dont give up on the girls gnats are not that bad it's pretty easy to keep under control and this is the third grow for me with the critters and they have yet to bother the plants..although i here certain kinds can be a bitch for your soil and roots if they get out of hand..

I didn't give up on anyone.
I do small CFL grows, and I focus everything on a single tree grow.
The "girls" are just some of my gal's sisters, that I didn't want. And there's a flowerpot with a few clones of my gal.
They're all going outside.
I'm keeping one clone of my gal around, in case I like her smoke.
And besides that, I'll be replacing all my genetics with this Lemon Skunk clone I have.

 

[stinkbudd1]

UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM, Lemon skunk!! I have never had any type of lemon plant to smoke or grow!!

 

[C.Indica]

Yea I'm just using bagseed right now. To be honest I've only been following this thread for shits n' giggles. I'm not revegging anything haha.
My lady has 4-5 weeks to go. I can't wait.

Only reason I did this is because I had no idea how much I should have left. Heard somewhere 20% and that's about what I left. The buds grew ofcourse after I harvested.
If I ever need to revegge my plants again I will cut more of them. I now know that I just need maybe 3-4 buds on each plant because there are just the top buds that have
started sprouting branches. All the lower foliage is just unchanged and aren't growing sprouts (to my own "frustration" (wasting bud))

 

[C.Indica]

Oh I the lemon skunk I have definately isn't bagseed. She's a trusty clone.

Wow I would have left like 1/8oz on there to be honest.
But she'll recover real fast now.
I heard they grow a lot denser after a reveg.
Get those lower buds proper lighting. Treat them just like main buds.

 

[Padrone]

It's hard for me to find the proper balance between lower and higher buds when you are dealing with a plant that's one of a kind. I could LST them but I think it will be hard cuz their stems are so sturdy. I've heard the same that they will be like mad bushes but I will deal with it when it when the time comes. Maybe I will topp them when I got my clones.

I'm focusing mainly on getting clones from her ASAP and after that I will bloom them. I'm going to try a few teqniques from here on.

1. ScrOG - I'm waiting for a friend to finish welding together a screen to put in there. - The screen will have 8x7 squares and each square is 87x70 mm is size. That should give each plant about 16 squares. Sounds good.
2. Topping with ScrOG
3. Topping
4. SOG
5. 12/12 from seed - want to try this but to do so I need seeds, so this will be at a later stage.

EDIT:

But I'm sure I will leave alot less bud on there if I ever need or do revegge again!

 

[C.Indica]

Lots of growers take clones, root them, and immediately bloom them with no veg time allowed.
Basically the same as 12/12 from seed, but with more proper results, as the plant starts blooming immediately.

Yeah I thought about that. I'm just so excited about all these teqniques I almost can't choose what to start with.
And I'm going to keep a journal about every type and try to do the same nutes and time scedules with them all to measure what has the best
results for my grow.

 

[C.Indica]

Well, every technique will respond differently based on Genetics/Environment.
So keep in mind that certain individuals will respond to topping better than LST. And vice versa.

Didn't you grow that nug in your picture? It's huge.

 

[Padrone]

Didn't you grow that nug in your picture? It's huge.

Yup. It was the biggest one I've grown yet and was off one of four plants in my last grow.
I didn't do anything fancy to that grow, just grew free. Well I tied the buds up because the stems couldn't hold them up.

I'm not sure what strain I have but people say that I might have NY Sour Diesel, so I will just leave it at that.

 

[C.Indica]

Finally got my signature in order.
If you'll allow 20 questions;
What was the dry weight of that nug alone?
Dry weight of entire plant?
How long was it vegged for?
How long did it flower for?
How many watts?

Ooosh... I didn't wheigh it alone, but the total harvest was 160 gr from four plants plus the buds I left on seen in my pictures on this thread.
I vegged them for 20 days and they were in bloom for 65-70 days, always under a 600w HPS

 

[C.Indica]

Ohhh man I can't wait until I get a proper setup.
I'm only rockin' CFLs @ 110w.
I vegged my lady for 58 days before flowering, if I get even 1/10 the size of your nug, I'll be happy.

 

[Padrone]

Hey man don't be afraid of that 600w HPS... its hot but quite easy to cool down.
You should deffinetly go for it.
Now I have a 125w cfl for clones and vegge. I do intend to keep my 600w busy at blooming.

 

[C.Indica]

Well it's the electric bill too. I don't live on my own yet.
When I do though..
Thinkin' more along the lines of a 150w some day.
