Can I switch back to vegging after force flowering to find out what sex it is?

[PotOfCannabis]

My question is I forced flower for 4 weeks barely started seing sex signs on all of them and 4 of six are budding can I switch them all back to vegging because they are all very small and will not have much of a yield so I want too either fully veg them out or until they get big enough too force flowering again

...yes....it'll take a while for the plant to adjust and you'll get some weird growth, but yeah you can do it.

So can I top Off the buds and clone them or will the clone die or will the buds fall off?

Wierd growth what do you mean by that?and will it still be a decent high ?

...maybe I misunderstood your question here. I thought your question was/is: Can you flip a plant back into veg after flowering for 4 weeks....that's your question, am I correct?

yes you can. youve wasted a 3 weeks though. a plant under vegative lighting will begin alternating nodes and showing preflowers when mature. you just forced it to mature with less energy available for overall growth and now you'll need to spend a week or two while they revert to vegging. your leaves will look weird, single bladed and fucked up looking compared to normal leaves.

...^^^what he said...that's the weird growth I spoke of....a regenerated plant looks like shit for awhile.

OG kush and i flowered for 4 weeks and a couple days the pistils got bigger from the 3rd week and budding came in act also in the fourth week in couple days it would be on its fifth week. and also remember that i forced flowered after 2 weeks of veg so and i went from 24/0 straight too 12/12 so idk if my plants were stunted for awhile from the quick switch or if it still kept flowering cause like i said the 3rd week the pistils started coming out the fourth week small budding and longer and bigger pistils
