First off, thanks for all the great info. It's nice having a vet in your corner.

I got two ladies, initially took some clones and then proceeded to torture and kill them :dunce: Newbie mistake.

Can I harvest, leave some trunk and jump right back into veg for another round?

I've only successfully reverted a plant from flowering to veg once, but I've only tried twice... It is possible, but takes time, and is high stress.

What you'll want to do is leave a few of the lower brances in tact, cutting the colas off, but leaving some of the little inner branch buds. Keep them under 24 hours of light. Do a thourough flush, and revert back to veg nutes.

What will happen is little single fingered leaves will start to grow from the little buds, and eventually it will revive and be fine... It takes a while.

I'll upload some pics tonight, after work, I've been busy preparing the bloom room, all the lights are hung, and the ventillation is hooked up.

The first set of clones are still 100% alive with no losses, but no roots popping out yet.

I'll be taking another tray tonight, and everything is starting to show sex. I have a female of everything, 9Mile, Blueberry, Silver Mango, and Super Skunk... I've been buying more supplies every week, and am just about fully stocked up. It's getting close, get excited. :mrgreen:

It is faster to start from seed
than to try and re-veg.

I have tried re-vegging and it usually messes the buds all up with elongated stalky calyx'

I am trying to re-geg a timewarp right now
and it has just been sitting there for over a month,
no growth at all.

My re-veg WW stalked out
and never made good buds

The WW i cut and then left in 12/12 was excellant.

Take a cutting and then get some light closer to those lower buds,
while you do a long RO only flush.

I agree about low light also,
I like to use CFLs for the finish, and RO flush,
while keeping the room at 65ºf

Yeah, I veg with 40W flouros so, low light is inevitable...

I noticed the same thing with the second one I tried to re veg as Earl, it didn't do anything for over a month, and then died... I wasn't feeding it at all after the flush and first light feeding, it wasn't drinking at all...

What's up Willie...

More pics tonight...

Cool man, when I checked my clones today, 5 were busting with roots, and a bunch have visable roots coming from the stem and into the plug but not out the other side yet. I'm about to do an update.

Those are all mothers, they are just creating clones. The first set of clones are ready, and I'm about to go take another tray, so I should start the blooming in less than a month, I'm only going to veg them for a little while, but it's going to take some time to get 60 or so clones together from those mothers, the first set that has just rooted are going to have to be where some clones come from probably.

you aint bullshitten there, you plan on super croppin,lol.Does one vortex fan cool all 6 lights?

Yeah, I forget the rating it's either 850 CFM or 950 CFM... 10" inlet CAN fan.

but with all the static resistance, it's not getting nearly that high of a flow rate, if you walk past one of the inlets on the hood, it'll suck your shirt, or hair right in.
