You act as though your manipulation of the plant's environment can somehow magically stop the plant from deteriorating as it grows old. This is a false claim. Senescence is Inevitable. Choose a different word...
Your plants have already lost leaves, Senescence.

I disagree that those leaves were lost to senescence.
I could go on but this doesn't sound like a discussion, sounds like a lecture.
Anything said in this thread is equivalent to toke and talk, I said that to BP a while ago in this thread.
Things cherry picked from this thread are not as relevant as the official thread where I posted my goal. A simple goal. A goal that I accomplished.
I have no idea if those leaves will remain or die off. I feel they won't and other opinions aren't changing that opinion yet.
Anyway I could go on in many directions but you guys are being a bit anal like butt worms so I'm outta here.

No. I have a revegged plant, and all original material is dead. Tried a bowl of the dried out nug covered in amber trichs. Ouch, harsh and nasty.

I respect @homebrewer and his opinion nearly above all, so I hope he does chime in.

IME, depends on when you want to come back. Too late and it isn't coming back. Clone late in flower and that clone is dead no matter what. I didn't know what it was called though. Now I know.
That being said, I have also revegged one plant post harvest. It was a SSH. It was my first Haze and I was unfamiliar with the strain and didn't realize it was a very long flower. I chopped and revegged that plant. I may have chopped way early....

@Kushash I haven't re-veged a plant except clones, but I can see the original leaves maybe hanging on a while if they are still healthy and you keep feeding the plant. But what is your goal? Growing leaves?
When they re-veg, they put out entirely new growth. On an old plant, having leaves left may help it through the re-veg process, but that takes about a month or more.

My goal is to learn and share.
@Big Perm says:

Do you agree with that?
I know you just started experimenting with vegging a clone in early flower. I've done it at a 25% success rate in late flower. I'm only guessing and have pics somewhere but I did it about 8 or 9 weeks into flower with probably an 11 or 12 week strain. I think 2 or 3 of 8 plants cloned successfully. One never developed leaves but developed roots and a trunk at least 3 times bigger that when I started cloning it.
Maybe I'll take some clones from these clones and try to reveg them this grow for fun after I pass 10 weeks 12/12. Maybe I'll take a few at week 10 and a few at week 11.
Do you think they will all die?
OK H.A.F this is the wink part.
Get it? Maybe serious maybe joking you decide.
Ready?
A smoke with a large amount of cannibanoids and terpines with 17% THC can have a much more incredible high than a poorly grown smoke with 25% THC.
True? False? IDK?

Undetermined, highs vary based on individuals. But yes the 17% THC could have a much better high in theory. I’m sure everyone here has smoked a lower % bud and had a more pleasant stone/high/whatever you’re trying to achieve.

I have seen plants that were harvested re-veg. Just pics online, and mostly before and after not the process. As far as taking a clone late in flower, seems to me it would depend on where you took the clone from. Obviously the lower woody stems are worthless. If you got some near the top and pruned all the buds off, maybe?
I think the main thing with re-vegging clones in early flower is that
A. Around week 3 of flower most people trim away any larf stems that are left, so in a "waste-not want-not" frame of mind, someone figured out a new thing.
B. If you are into the breeding thing, it might take until they start to flower before you find that special something you were looking for - then you can take clones all from that one plant.
I honestly don't see the reason behind trying it late in flower, other than just leaving a few stem-bottoms with some larfy-nugs at harvest, then seeing if the whole plant will re-veg.
??? I cant tell if you successfully re-vegged a plant and took it back through flower or not from that post, but by all means, if you have the room, the lights and the dirt, go for it. All it can do is fail. Depends on what you want to sacrifice to find out.
I have no clue on that one, but I have had 3 different buzzes from 3 joints rolled from the same bud. I think your mood plays more into it than anything. Or it could be whatever else is happening at the time, what you ate last, who knows?OK H.A.F this is the wink part.

I do think that if you are wanting that couch-lock effect, it's more likely with a high THC flower - but the absence or presence of CBD effects that as well

Depends really.
If the strain claimed 25%, and it was poorly grown, it would not contain 25% THC. But if it was poorly grown and tested at 25%...maybe a different story.

The best part of trimming is the scissor hash mmmmmm scissor hash

Like I said earlier - I won already. I got over 7oz all to myself, a bunch of tester seeds from a fellow competitor, and learned stuff.
If whoever wins it wants to donate that AC Infinity 4" fan to me as a consolation prize, I'm good with that

I am changing my plants nickname from Ugly Bastard to Lamb Chop. It's the plant that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friends. Some people started growing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue growing it forever just because this is the plant that never ends.
