question about day length and re-veggin

Question:
I have read a plant can go back into vegging mode if the light is increased? True or False?

I have an inside vegging that I blacked out for 36 hours and then tossed em outside. So cal weather. She is flowering fine, yet I was thinking today if it is possible that she will go back to vegging. I mean the Sun is giving spring rays and the day is increasing a few minutes a day and so on.
I also read that some growers in Canada Black em out 36 hour and then out them back on 24 hour and get em ripe quicker.
Seems like a contradiction---any experience on this? My resource is the Medical Growers Bible yet I seem to have overlooked or cannot find this bit of info so I gotta ask.
I even have some new clones that were in veg mode clipped of this same girl before black out--- like about 10 days before and the Clone rooted fine within 12 days and appears as though it is flowering? Been under 27/7 45 watt tri color bubbler. (tri color+ 2700 3500 6500 color 15 watt a piece) for my bubbler. I did although feed them after I saw roots appear with a foliar spray of Hawaiian Bud and Bloom as it is rich in P&K and Low in N as N is no good for rooting.
Recap: budding with 24 hour light (got pics or can take one)
Budding or flowering while the light increases moments per day with Spring light because it is Spring here. Used a 36 hour black out to promote Flowering.

Anyone?
Rep and regards adn thanks in advance!

yes if the dark cylcle is shorter than 12 hrs it will reveg. The light outside now is almost 12/12 so it might bud a bit befor the days get longer.

I dont think theres any reasont to go 36hr dark first, but it wont kill em or nothing. 12/12 for me.

I read in medical Growers Bible that 36 hour black out will induce flowering. I also read today that getting a plant to go back into a rooting or vegetative state takes some real good conditions. So to answer my own post NO, she wont go back to Vegging with the light increase in spite of the conditions saying it is grow season.Hence the 36 hour black out to confirm or induce a hormone change that will take more then an increase of a few moments a day and there-by decreasing darkness a few moments on the other side.
It would take a 24 hour light 2 weeks to get her to revert (IF) big if there--- IF she will even go back to veg state at all without finishing her flowering. So Crank em out with CFL's and black em out and toss em outside as long as you do not get frost or dramatic weather changes we are a launch Huston.

This is funny, my plants that I moved into the green house have started to bud too. Was just out there thinking bout how its going to affect their growth. I'm just going to let em do their thing, maybe harvest a couple of nugs from some new strains for a taste test.

Concerning the post about re-veg, I've just finished up 4 moms that I harvested in Dec and re-vegged under 24 hr light for 8 weeks. I harvested them about a month ago; the smoke was very potent and each of the plants gave up around 2 oz of dried smoke. This is not the first time that I've done this and nothing special was done cept the 24 hr light and lite nutes/watering.

Update on this thread 20 days into flowering from an inside to outside, Light is getting longer everyday and she is still Flowering even with the backyard light getting flicked on a few times a night by my smoking girlfriend at night So lightus inerruptus along with light lengthening and still flowering.
Baring down on this black out myth

update here are the girls entering a 14 hour day length with no sign of re veggin, I am going give them 0 0 2 in the next week and see then re-flower ( I was told)
So we will see in about 10 days after they get watered again.

Yep new program veggem in the inside toss em in the dark 36 hours and harden em off (not hardly) and let the Sun finish her off. My chic and I were talking and we were trying to come up with an analogy so we said, Stopping a female from flowering is like trying to stop Labor after it has started. So the experiment continues

Yes I get real tired of here say---so I am doing it myself and it seems to be a wifes tale so far. I am about at 14 hour days in two weeks that will be her 8th week of flowering---will snap some pics got busy today prying emblems of the new car.
If you are stalled whereas you are not getting riper or bigger? Then you can hit them with 2 tbs of monopotassium something or another SOWCAL carries it they are a righteous hydro chain in hollywood and Huntington not sure if they are online or you're corner store is nearby? You can use any manufacturer sparingly look for 0 or next to nothing Nitro First number and a stout midle number like 50 and because it is best to go 2-1 for flowering (thanks to a read from riddleme)
So like a 0 50 25 all the manufactures have soemthing for a 6&7 week push---- I just boosted those girls and will snap a pic tomorrow. The reason for the 36 hour black out in the begining BTW is any 3days in a row of something is going to make it adjust. Right now I tossed 2 other girls in the yard without black out from a 17 hour day to 13.45 as it is outiside. so far not flowering but jsut been a couple of days----will let you guys know WTF K
laterz gotta eat

hmm your ladies are just being bitches thats all. My two fuck I gotta clone from Mrs. Lanky Ass last year say round oh I don't know probly october maybe august not sure ANYway obviously since that turned out to be my first successfull grow I was learning the ropes as it were with alotta my own research and help from folks here and I got these clones after they were well into flowering needless to say this clone was a flowering plant when taken She rooted and stayed more or less in flowering for awhile had her under 24/7 CFL like a weak ass 15w or some shit and she swapped back to vegetative no problem. Thing is I added New Blood to the mix and she and the clone switched to flower can't remember why now, think it had to do with taking them outside to get Actual SUNLIGHT instead of pussy 15w CFL in either case when I noticed this I brought both back inside and again under 24/7 Light same bulb They not only went back to Vegetative growth but these ladies are growing like a mother fucker!!!! as they say Patience is a Virtue ;);)

here are some pics of the girls as promised---- also for grins I took a look with my microscope at the tri's and the Banana K is already showing 2% amber tris she is the more snowy one. That wind sure makes a difference too. Made them rigid and powdery. Also have two more witch I threw out for flowering a week or so ago---need to check anyways they are flowering fine too, Be curious to find out what happens when I get into full 14 hour days in two weeks?
I tossed a pic for reference I may keep this going?
Correction week six ---the increased sunlight seems to have increased the Banana k's tri color production or I may be just seeing the onset of "the -wait" dum-dum <--law and order soundbyte

so I am starting flushes in a day or so---(waiting for the last watering to dry out) I have some more right behind these as the days reach 14.5 hours a day. I think to get a female to revert back to Veg it must take 17 hours of light as what I have been reading and also was referenced in the MMJ Gwrs Bible here are some pics of them before flush this week--- I will finish this thread in about 3 weeks when those other two girls are ready to be flushed and this rumor of longer days and reverting will behind us.
