can u harvest all bud but not cut stem and have it start all over again?

can u harvest all your bud but leave fan leaves and stauk and have it revert back to veg growth and wat not to keep re growing?.....or is that the opposite of what a annual plant is by defenition?

Most of the time because of the dense growth in my outdoor grows i harvest the top buds and allow the younger ones to continue growing til they are ripe also.Long sentence.Some people cut out the center of their plants and reveg the whole plant,then reflower.Happens alot.

that is the opposite of what an annual plant is... it does one cycle then it is done,,,, finito

so after picking all the bud off the plant if u leave the stauk and fan leaves and change the light back to 18/6 it will basically re grow?

it might. on the other hand it might not be strong enough to stand the stresses harvesting puts on it. but would it hurt to try? id love to see pics of anyone who attempts this. sounds intriguing.

a bunch of ppl did it just leave the stalk a couple permature buds and the leaves itll work search reveg

Yes, re vegging works just fine.

I have heard of occasions where people have left just the stalk, and the plant has grown back, but these are rarities.

The normal method of revegging is to leave a couple of the lower buds and leaves on the plant, then put it under constant light for several weeks, with a high N feed.

Some people don't leave any bud at all, just leaves, but I personally leave a small amount of bud, and see growth from the budsites at least a week befor I see it anywhere else.

When the plant does start to grow back, it will throw out deformed growth for a while, but will eventually return to normality.

The problems with revegging are, firstly, it takes ages for the plants to start growing normally, and secondly, it's genetics are less stable afterwards. It will get you a second harvest no problems, but I would not recommend keeping a revegged plant as a mother, unless you have no alternative.
