Question on if it's worth re vegging

I took the big buds off one of my girls and was letting the popcorn get bigger but have been thinking of re vegging her, here's my prob the day that I cut I noticed pollen sacks forming so I pulled the sacks off and picked the buds. The popcorn on bottom had a few but I pulled those sacks too and haven't seen anymore, if I re veg this lady will it try turning hermie on me or will it stay female? Just don't want to waste time with re veg if it won't stay female. Thanks for any help

You can flower a plant till it is done, harvest 90% of it, and then re-veg it quite happily. I won't lie to you and say it's going to look pretty though :D the initial growth will freak you out a bit first time around, it's almost like basil leaves.

Here is an exo cheese (probably about 3 feet tall before harvest). As i say, it's not pretty. The buds left will end up drying up and turning to dust. One of the benefits (at the cost of a few buds) is that once it is re-vegging, you get a hell of a lot of growth in a hell of a short period. But it can cause issues if you're not working with good genetics, if i was finding pollen sacks prior to re-vegging, then i wouldn't even consider it.IMG_4901.JPG

The plant doesn't mind.
And yes you can, after harvesting the buds I deem worthy of selling I throw the plant back under 24/0 and veg again. Give ita few weeks and the monster can be flowered again. I have strains I've kept running for several years this way.
I have had a few throw nanners, doesn't mean it will again. I've had moms herm as well that gave beautiful clones unwilling too.

This is how I find my keepers also. Run through stock 12/12 from seed and reveg the keeper turning it into a mom

Definitely easier than keeping clones of every single plant in the flower room just in case you want to keep one.

Wow thanks for the responses, I think I will try my hand at it anyways if it doesn't work out oh well. Gonna be takin a break from my main cab anyway for upgrades (splitting it down the middle and having a veg and flower chamber in same unit) but will be using my clone cab to reveg one of my ladies. Better chances this way than pickin a random bagseed as I haven't ordered any good feminized seeds yet.

Do I trim the roots when I place in a new pot? I need to I'm thinking of goin with a 2 gal hempy because of space restrictions in my clone cab. It will only be in there for couple weeks but a 5 gal won't fit.
