Thank you for your input and advice. I really do like the idea of cloning this plant. It has some very small branches at the very bottom that are actually producing little leaves and bud sites. Are these the best clone sites? Or should I choose a big branch?
If the truth is a compliment then so be it. I'm not saying your plants look spectacular but they still have leaves at least for a little while longer. The purple can be caused by cold temperatures.

I saw in another one of your posts that your using DynaGrow. It's really low on magnesium. And I'm not a fan of silica products like Protekt. It's just potassium silicate which has a very high alkaline pH. You don't need silica additives. Silica can be applied as a foliar rather than added to your soil if you want to use it. If you added anything magnesium sulfate/epsom salts would have been more beneficial since DynaGrow seems lacking. It also has a low amount of calcium which shouldn't be an issue if you're using tap water.

These plants are so far along that it wouldn't make much difference what you did at this point. But you can improve your plant nutrition for your next grow.

If you want to try and save the plant then leaving all the lower stuff when you harvest and trying to reveg would likely have a better chance of success. I don't think it's worth the bother. Just chop that when it's done, dry it and smoke it. There's so much good weed out there that trying to save the genetics of that plant really isn't worth the hassle.

Plant some more seeds. Get your plant nutrition and feeding squared away, and you'll be growing nice lush and healthy plants. Lush and healthy plants make killer bud.

Good luck.

I love your suggestions and I’m probably gonna do just that. Curious tho about the dynagro thing. I amended my soil with powdered dolimitic lime. Also using tap water 150ppm.

Don't just go taking my suggestions. See what others have to say and take a consensus.

Looks like you overfed in the beginning and then over corrected. Once you claw the leaves they stay that way.

I'm in no way an expert on growing in soil. Although I have grown 7ft plants in 2 liters of soil.

There is already dolomitic lime and oyster shells in Happy Frog. You don't need to add more. Plus it takes months for it to start to become available. You're using tap water so calcium shouldn't be an issue.

I also don't see hardly any magnesium in the DynaGrow. They have magnesium sulfate in the ingredients but it' just a very small percentage.

I've reveg'd multiple plants over the years and it seems to work nearly %100 of the time if you have patience. Like suggested harvest most of the plant besides lower bud sites and leaves. Switch to a longer lighting period, and wait. Each bud site will turn into new branch structure, and reveg'd plants tend to get much larger, given that you leave plenty of growth and don't get all impatient smoking the buds off it lol.
I'd seriously look into it. Once a plant is reveg'd it can be used as a mother plant to take multiple clones from for a long period of time. Good luck man.

Here's a revegged plant if you aren't familiar with the process.

This one looks a little odd because it was a female I reversed for pollen so it had male flowers when I revegged.



Here it's just starting to put out new growth from the flower sites.



Here it is fully revegged and growing like a normal vegging plant. You can take clones at this point.



Here it is flowering.
