your gonna need to not harvest all of her (leave some bud sites and foliage) and re-veg to get clones... i dont think she will die from using cool bloom and big bud.....

yea i wouldnt see why it would die if you used a specific kind of ferts....i've never heard about that making a difference between life and death...but i'd have to wait and see what the jusy says on this one. but i say no

flush her really good, harvest like 85% of her and then reveg for clones, as stated above. the flush should (hopefully) take care of the nute situation (which I still dont understand).

i was told the cool bloom and big bud have hormones in them that let the plant know its going 2 die soon so it flowers and ripens faster and then dies

if u are truly that concerned u could just not harvest at all to give u the best possible chances that she will live. i mean you would lose one harvest, but id trade a harvest for a master mother plant.

but thats only if u reallly really are afraid she'll die, otherwise just take only some of her bud and then reveg, her.

or maybe try take some clones and see if they live. idk i didnt really read the other posts until now. but since u used cool bloom and big bud it might be too late, cause i have heard a couple times that they lead to death

Im in the same boat. I have some good looking purple weed growing and dont want to lose it. Just last kite I took some of the lower branches and put them into 24hr. Im also going to try to reveg the plant after harvest. One method should work I hope.
