Will flowers die when revegging?

Basically put my plants outdoors too early, sun was 12/12, from 20/4 indoors, trying to get a head start.

Plants flowered for 5 weeks, then stunted, now I’ve got 1 blades leafs, turning into 3 and 5 again, with stems growing out of the buds. My question is will these buds die off eventually, they just seem to be staying alive, with new vegetative growth too. Flowering time starts in February here in Australia, so what happens if the buds don’t die before then?

The buds won't die, they will slowly morp. The buds will unfold and produce round unserrated leaves with trichomes on them. It will probably take 6-8 weeks for vertical growth beyond where the buds were. New growth will have normal looking serrated leaves.

I’m already at this stage, have new growth coming out, I’m passed the once blade thing, it’s shooting new stems up from absolutely everywhrrr with more normal leafs coming out, but the buds that are already on the plant will just stay as buds for the next moths?

These are the photos , first one is the new growth, second one is the bud just below it ( its big, almost the size of a can of coke lol)

To answer your question, no the buds won't die, they will continue to unfold as you have already observed. Revegging cannabis is a long process.

The bud unfolding become growing points. Resulting in lots of shoots coming from a central point. The right strain can a scroggers delight. When it does this people call it a monster crop.

If they die, you can smoke them. It does take a long time to reveg. Better to take cuttings and clone yourself a new mother, if you are trying to keep the genetics around.I did it once and it worked, but I would have been better off using the space for its clone, or even a new seed.

Yeah, take my advice with a grain of salt, I only have revegged 3 clones in late flower, not a whole plant, but I'm sure the results are very similar. It takes a long time, but worth it when you are saving genetics of a plant that out shined all of her sisters.
