Hi all, 

Firstly, hello!

 

I'm on my third grow, first of photos and also first in hydro. Currently have some strawberry cough and exodus cheese nearly ready to harvest. I took some cuttings a while back and thought they were looking great as a first go. After about 4 weeks, I started noticing small pistils appearing and I assumed they were showing their sex. Long story short, this kept happening - I eventually got them into their new homes and their new growth was really weird. Single leafs, spindly narrow leafs etc. Trying to figure out what was going on, I noticed the timer In the clone tent was wrong and set to lights on for 15hrs, off for 9 hours, resulting in them instantly going into flower when they were old enough. 

 

They've now been on a 24hr lights on for the past 10 days, which is where I noticed the odd leafs. It's now obvious to me that they are revegging. 

 

My question is, is it worth carrying these on in veg, as they went straight to flower, or are they worthy for the bin? 

 

Being my first clones, I'm reluctant to throw my efforts and mistakes away, but I don't want to waste my time, money and effort. What are your thoughts on this?

 

Thanks

@freggy Welcome to Percys man. I would keep them mate, just put them on 18/6, they will reveg and be fine, no need ot throw them away Smile Starting again will just take more time really so stick with what you have got, they will be fine in a week or 2

@macky nice, that's the answer I'd hoped for. Will 18/6 be better than 24? How soon after they're back to normal growth will I be able to flip them, should I leave them settled on normal growth before doing so?

@freggy some dark is good for them imo, but im not sure if 24 will be ok, never done it. When normal growth resumes you can flip them as soon as you ike man. Just make sure they grow a bit before flipping so youll get more off them in the end.

I have never re-veged before, but others have stated it can take a long while for them. Like Macky said, giving plants a little dark time is often recommended, and it eases up on the electric bill, too. If it were me, I'd try 20/4 cycle and try to be patient.

Hi all, just wanted to drop back in and update. Plants looked great after the reveg stopped it's ugly growing. I scrogged them for the first time which looked great but I think I messed them up by tucking for too long, resulting in the buds not sitting high enough from the net which lead to smaller buds and yield. Or the genetics just weren't great as I got similar to the previous run, couple of ozs of each. This being said, thoroughly enjoyed the lessons and the bud I did get looked top notch.

 

Onto the next one, and I have some bugs... Stay tuned for a new thread in the appropriate section...
