I have used this method many times in this state were we can only have three plants in a vegetated state and three in a flowering state. I can harvest three times from one plant and each harvest gets me more than the prior harvest.
What is great about this is you can have six strains going, you only take clones on the three that are on the third vegetated cycle to start all over again.
So lets start I fist take only the top colas that are ready to be harvested this should be about 1/3 of the plant, try to leave as much foliage leaf as possible. Plus you are making the plant into a growth period, when you remove the upper colas the lower colas get exposed to more light. Remember they were covered and shaded and you wanted to pull them of because they were wasting energy, well now the plant will send more nutrients to the new tops to help swell up looking for pollen.
Now we wait two weeks or so and I take the next harvest from the plants but leave the very bottom buds small popcorn size on the plant with as much foilar leaf as possible. This is why I don't like to remove leaf matter from the bottom of my plants.
I now move this plants with the popcorn size buds back into 20 hours of light and hit them with a high nitrogen load. I do this until I am ready to move them back into flowering. You should start to see some new growth in 7 to 20 days, also you may see some new branch systems growing from the bud sites, don't worry this is normal.
The more little popcorn buds you leave on the plant the faster it will re-veg. Remember the Nitrogen loads as well this will help speed things along. Plus it keeps the foliage leaves nice and green and this is what makes buds big ass hell along with foliar feeding.

You should be able to get a second harvest within 8 weeks of re-vegging, and then the cycle starts all over. I have never been able to get more than three cycles out of any plants
First Harvest:
1. I cut the upper 1/3 of the plant that is ready and leave as much foliage as possible.
2. I wait a couple of weeks until it is ready and I cut the next 1/3 of the plant and leave as much of the foliage and small popcorn size buds.
3. put the plant back into a vegetative state with 20 hours of light and hit it with a nitrogen load, you should start to see new growth within 7 to 20 days.
4. It is ready for flowering again.
Second Harvest:
1. I cut the upper 1/3 of the plant that is ready and leave as much foliage as possible.
2. I wait a couple of weeks until it is ready and I cut the next 1/3 of the plant and leave as much of the foliage and small popcorn size buds.
3. put the plant back into a vegetative state with 20 hours of light and hit it with a nitrogen load, you should start to see new growth within 7 to 20 days.
4. I take clone cuttings
5. It is ready for flowering again.
Third Harvest:
1. I cut the upper 1/3 of the plant that is ready and leave as much foliage as possible.
2. I wait a couple of weeks until it is ready and I cut the next 1/3 of the plant and leave as much of the foliage and small popcorn size buds.
3. I wait another week or two then chop the plant down
