I ALWAYS send my mommas off in smoke.
I always grow them out one last time, and put a few buds away for long term storage.
(it's really about the room you have in your budding chamber)
But just out of curiosity, why would you keep a plant that long?

That may seem like I'm criticizing.
I am not, just curious.
I take a plant out of the veg room, put it in the grow room and take a clone.
The clone becomes the new momma.
It sits in the veg tent until I want to use it, then it goes in the bloom room and I take a new clone...
ad infinitum

When my moms start getting a woody looking stalk after 6 or 8 months, I have a friend that takes them and finishes them. That's his tent. He's got two 4x4's. Each is always populated with an old mom.
He's really good at reviving them by trimming them way back, washing off as much of the soil as possible (I put them in FFOF), then transplanting them into a 5gal container of coco/perlite. He gives them TLC for a few weeks and trains them out with some fresh growth. The end results are usually pretty good. That one in the pic produced 10oz of top buds and a few bags of larf and sugar leaf trim.

The plant in the picture was transplanted, trimmed back, and then select new growth was trained out on trellis net for around 3 or 4 weeks before flipping.

I threw a mother into my last cycle after finding a cluster of males and needing to fill up the canopy. It was a little over a week behind the other plants, but it developed buds super fast and caught up to the other plants in like a week.
A cannabis plant can live up to 10 years in veg and can be flowered numerous times.
