My 8hr flowering experiment

Chopped the first lucky charms this morning. Easily the stickiest plant I've had in my cabinet yet.
I left all the bottom growth on and threw it into my tent. When she grows back she's getting cloned and hit with pollen.
As long as she smokes good I should say!

Put another branchy more cowbell in the open slot of the flower cab and I'm starting to get the hang of this staggered business.
The field trip continues to pack on Chrystal

Had to move n water everything today since I'm leaving tonight for a weekend in the woods.
Tent is literally jammed to the point of not even another solo cup will fit.

I stick it in the back corner. Let it get super dry and then switch it to veg nutes.
The space monkey and gpb took well to revegging but the more cowbell did not.
So I guess it's a wait n see. If the smoke doesn't live up to the hype I'll chuck it.

You know, I meant to do this with the Blue Harley I just pulled and forgot like a stoner. Last round I'd cut 2x clones off my Fireballs pheno which for some reason didn't take. I really wanted it and was going to re-veg, instead I cut 3x clones at week 6 and stuck them in the cloner. Voila, 2 weeks later 2 of them rooted.

So, what I meant to try and forgot was to take a clone when I'm harvesting the plant and see if they root in the cloner. I see no reason why they wouldn't as long as you leave some small plant material and popcorn buds. If they'll re-veg, they'll clone is my thinking.

Going to make a note so my stoned ass doesn't forget and grab clones from the last 2x Blue Ripper's I'm just about to harvest, wtf.

Lol I've been there about a hundred times myself that's how I always end up running seed and not clones.
But after revegging the last couple my thinking is that if the goal is to have clones grow roots then why not use the roots it's already grown?
I'm going to transplant it to give it a rinse and kickstart but I think it will revert back to veg fairly quick.
We will know soon enough.

Yeah, re-veg is typically considered the last chance at keeping a good pheno going. I just can't afford veg space at all but I can fit 36 clones in the space of a single re-veg plant/pot. That's why I'm thinking if I can get away with cloning at harvest, if I ever get stuck it's a good backup option short of a re-veg.

I took a clone of him before he was culled so I can make ds f3's so when I have some I'll save a lil for ya.

Totally understand sir
I'd rather not take up all the space either but it's a harder to replace strain. The first couple were to see if I could and if it's worthwhile. Still makes for a better then nothing option.

Oh yeah for sure, I'm just trying to figure out if they'll clone at that stage. if I can get them cloning somewhat consistently I consider it about the same rate as re-veg. Some plants just don't seem to take to it.

It threw tons of single fans and really didn't grow much in any other way.
When I put it beside a seed plant I popped after taking the clone I said to myself never again lol. You would have to really really want to save that pheno imo.
I waited an entire flower cycle and said enough.
