ive always heard that once you cut all the stocks off of your weed it will still regrow and produce more for the next season. please is this possible? when the answer comes the setup and design will be posted after.
can the stump be reused

Sure you can. It's called re-veg. Harvest your plant but leave 1 or 2 small popcorn buds on the lower branches and trim everything else off. Come a veg light cycle it will re-grow and can be put back into harvest again.
As to why you might want to do this, i don't know, ever grown something that you'd wished you'd taken a clone of? 1 of any reasons.
Like this one i flowered and wished i'd cloned, so now i'll be able to grow it again

Dam, Would it not be faster to buy clones or seeds? Will that stump really throw out branches? Keep me posted on your stump run, I throw that shit away.... I could be wasting a valuable plant I think I look at it differently... paying for the lights I want to make the most bang for the buck... and that stump would be taking up valuable real estate....

Re-veg is not some sort of myth, it is a well established technique. You might be able to buy clones in medi states, but you can't easilyt buy them in the rest of the world. Seeds will give different pheno's, it is often one specific pheno that makes something famous, and you can't be sure that you'll find it again, so as i say, if you grow something that suddenly makes you wish you'd taken a clone, then it's not too late. That stump takes up no more space than a pot with a seedling or clone in it and the advantage is that it already has an established root structure. In the past i've found re-veg plants to often grow out a lot faster and rigorously than seeds or clones. Clones will need generaly 1 week+ just to root out, seeds will take that long to establigh themelves as seedlings. I say it is swings and roundabouts. If you leave lots of buds on, then you will get many many new shoots.Dam, Would it not be faster to buy clones or seeds? Will that stump really throw out branches?

theres also spliceing. thats an intresting technique as well.

i did this by accident after harvesting the ultimate pheno of pineapple chunk. i guess the soil was wet enough and the kichen light was bright enough because i had new growth all over that thing. i didn't grow it as a plant, though, i just cut it into clones. it's the "plan b" for people who didn't clone when they should have. this way you know exactly whether or not you would want more of this plant because you already saw the end product.

ent no winter in my grow cabinet
but you are correct, come the frosts they're not gonna be happy plants, more likely dead plants.

I read about this before too, and tried it after my first or second crop. I took one nice WW plant and left just a few small popcorn and tiny fans near the bottom. Hacked everything else. It took a long time, but it did reveg. As I recall though, when I eventually put that plant into bud, it got kinda weird. Grew funny, not very healthy etc.

ok so heres the set up part. for what i really want.LED's(cover the room) 4 feet by 4 feet veg room. an 8X8 flower room with every plant that is in flower has 6 lights vertical surrounding the plant on all sides water done all by me(machines fail).all in a drain tray so the water can be reused or boiled sterilized and reused.with a hose to make things little easyer. and as for the when to know for lights on and off. and old school wind up alarm clock set to go off at the right time for both setups(one a piece please i cant share)
OK, I mean sure, anything CAN be done but seriously?? Shortage of seeds at Attitude? I mean come on!!Sure you can. It's called re-veg. Harvest your plant but leave 1 or 2 small popcorn buds on the lower branches and trim everything else off. Come a veg light cycle it will re-grow and can be put back into harvest again.

Here's what I'm saying! It costs money to grow pot. Period. Now you can do a hobby grow and if that's your thing then have at it but if you're growing quality bud, it costs money. If I spend money, I want the best bang for my buck. You get that with quality seeds or quality clones and good nutes. Period . If you have a legal grow then you are constrained to a certain number of plants. I'm not wasting one of those numbers on some experiment. If you have an ilegal grow then I'm not risking my freedom on anything other than dank. Legal or illegal it makes sense and sometimes dollars and cents to get the most from your grow.
That's all I'm saying. Why waste your time and money ?

I call it re-growing and I do it with everything except auto-flowerers. When I first harvest I leave a double-handful of greenery still on the plant.
Preferably you want to leave the small leaves, branches and buds at the bottom of the plant. Then I turn the light to 20/4 and re-veg them for 4
weeks. I hit them with about 20 ounces of full strength nute water every day while re-vegging. After 4 weeks the light goes back to 12/12 for (usually) 4 weeks!
That's right, second cutting flowers quicker by more than a week for me. You will yield 100-200% of the first harvest if you vegged long enough.
That includes many more, but smaller, buds than first time.
Good luck, BigSteve.

hhmmm interesting concepts, I think this is a must for one of my plants after next harvest!
Hey man BTW If you don't reveg your plant keep that stalk and make hemp paper

Ok.. I am gonna give this a try... Since space and light is not an issue.. I will leave my coveted alien OG with some leaves and branches on the bottom.. minus any bud..... I am in the process of giving it the chop.. so If I yeild 100 to 200 percent I am looking at a cool 3/4 to 1 1/2 pounds.... I will give her a try and let you guys know...

I don't follow you. Where am i wasting time and money. As i have said, this is no "experiment" this is a well established way of doing things. Take for example a current plant i grow, the clone only exodus cheese (not gonna find that at attitude other than crappy wannabe knockoffs
) should say my mother die or a clone not survive, i do not have to risk losing a rather special strain, i can just re-veg it and grow it out all over again. I guess you missed my other point, say you find one cracking keeper phenotype, it's not too late to keep hold of it even if all you have is a plant that needs to be harvested. You keep mentioning spending money, here's me not spending money, i spent money on the first set of beans, and now i'm re-growing a good plant from that set, i've saved money. You are essentially questioning why people would bother cloning a plant. It is essentially a concept no different than cloning.So in short, my time has not been wasted, i have a new plant and i know exactly what it is unlike with seeds (i have already explained why clones is not a relevant arguing point) and i have saved money.. And anyway, i grow quality cannabis, and the best genetics cost me nothing, they were all gifted to me from forum members from various parts of the world.
You have to leave bud, this is where the new growth will come from, just leave a couple of the bottom buds, they'll be of little real significance in terms of harvest weight etc.
Again though, it's no experiment or gamble, it is not as widespread as cloning, but it is just as well established a technique.

its like a big reverse cone, basically just leave a few bud sites or whatever on the plant, and put it under 14 hr light and she will pop right back, think about the equator where the weather would never be bad enough to cause a true winter, there may be places with 100 year old ganja trees growing like giant bonsai bushes,Dam, Would it not be faster to buy clones or seeds?

cloning is way harder than reveging, and reveging is just continuing to grow the same plant in other words it is just as potent as it was the first time through except this time its roots are already established so it can focus on puttin out a shit ton of shoots, so it comes back really fucking bushy, this means lots of bud sites when you go for flower number 2, i dont know who this shit talker is, but he obviously has no common sense, reveging has been done by nature for thousands of years,I don't follow you.
