to re-veg or not

This is my first post and I want to start off by thanking everyone here. I have lurked around for quite a while just soaking in the information. It's been wonderful. Now to the business...

I understand that this is mainly personal preference but I started 5 plants back in august in a small closet LED(Sunshine Systems grow panel) grow. I slowly killed off the weaker plants and got myself down to 3.

I started flowering a little over 3 weeks ago and found out that 2 of 3 were males. This is bag seed so I didn't have high expectations. Out of the 3 plants that went into flowering the heights were 26, 20, and 14 inches tall. The smallest one was the only female. It had been getting less light due to the taller plants but I wanted to allow myself a chance at a female.

My question is, what would everyone else do? Should I try and boost the yield by going back into veg for a few weeks or should I just call it good and get what I can? This is my first grow and it has been going well. I have been using ninja's bottle co2 idea and I've been fertilizing. Any input would be great from anyone.

On another note, I went out and scoped some areas a couple of days ago to do some guerilla farming next summer. I think I'm going to try and get about 25 monsters going. I have about 2000 acres of someone elses woods to play in. When I get going with that I would like to get a journal going and keep everyone posted.

Well I guess I will stop rambling now and go burn one down. Thanks in advance!

I think the target yield from a first grow should be in learning not bud weight. I say just finish it out normally and put your yield (the learning) to work in the next grow.
 
I would say make some clones off your female so next time your guarenteed females for a cheap way to clone.. get some small glasses, rooting compound and paper towel. Cut a good healthy shoot or a few... splice the clipping long ways alonge the bottom of the steam about a halp inch up , moisten the end, dip in in the rooting compound, put a little water in the bottom of the glass and wrap the clipping up in the paper towel... The paper towel works as a wick to soak up the water and dosn't drowned it. Just keep an eye on the water level in the glass, dont let it go empty and mist the clippings atleast once a day 3 times in best though... you dont want the clipping in the water just the paper towel, in a couple weeks you should have roots. Then plant and continue to mist for a week.. I wouldn't re-veg the plant untill you get your yeild... then leave a some green on the plant and re veg in with your clones... you wont notice it growing much untill you get it back to 12/12 but then every lil bs peice you left on the plant will shoot up into colas. Good luck and remember patience...

That kind of the lines I was thinking. Kus allow it to finish out the way it is. It looks great, it's just not very big. Thanks for the opinions!
