Hello all, After months of reading and being Subscribed to the best informational source on the web for our passion and looking for information all over the internet machine for re-vegging success stories or re-vegging harvested plants in all I decided to do it myself and post up my findings. This is my second grow in all so I’m a newbie compared to all the Gurus out there. I haven’t really had any luck cloning so I said “F IT!” I’m going to re-vegge my only plant (Dank ass Smoke and potent stuff). I honestly don’t know the strain since it was a bag seed from some stuff my “Friend” called Orange Haze.

Her first vegging was actually disappointing to me being she was about only 13 inches tall in all and gave just over ½ ounce dried weight and only had like 7 good bud sites. The Buds originally weren’t thick at all or dense. They were regular size buds nothing like the king size Buds I’ve seen here, mine were just plain old small bud that did the job. After Cutting all the bud sites and leaving some stems and some leaves I decided “hey let me throw her back under the white lights on an 18/6 and see what happens and after 3 weeks I got the results in what you see in the first picture I attached taken Jan 14.

Now Just 1 week Later She blew up and after applying the LST method and tying down all the big tops I counted 20 huge Tops on the outer Rim of the pot and so far about another 5 on the inside canopy. The entire Canopy is even and allowing more light to get to the middle. Right now she is growing like as if I was bending her and although the big tops are tied towards the rim spreading her out its causing her to grow more tops from the same branch which means I could end up with like 30+ tops!!! All this is being done with only 6 6500k 26W CFL (just over 10,000 lumens) and feeding’s every 3 day with a tea of ½ tsp of Jacks 20-20-20 with some Liquid worm poop (from the Home Depot), PH the water with Apple cider vinegar to 6.0-6.5 and super thrive and Epsom salts (super thrive & Epsom salts every other week) and she has been getting scary large in just 1 week. Picture 2 and 3 were taken today and as you can see there is a significant amout of growth in just 1 week. I’ll keep you all posted on my results and Please chime in with suggestions, comments and feedback. Bong hits for everyone!!! bongsmilie

Update*** New Pics!!!

2 Days after taking the pics in my first post There has been some aggressive growth. I added 2 more CFL's to bringing my total up to 8 CFL's 5 26W 6500K and 3 26W 2700K giving me a total of over 13,000 lumens for this one plant. I will be in a few weeks add a 4 more 2700K 26W CFL's before starting her on 12/12 all over again to bring up my lumens to just over 20,000. Dose any one out there have an idea on what kind of yield I can expect with 20,000 lumens for 1 plant feeding her every 3 day 76 degree full time in a 5 gallon planter?

Soil: Fox Farms OF
Nutes: Jacks classic 20-20-20 veg stage
Jacks classic bloom booster Flowering stage
PH 6.0-6.5
And a whole lot of love :weed:
