Reveg after harvest - How to?

TCH said:

I will be harvesting my Volcano girl plant in the next week or so. I did not take a clone as I was not thinking about rerunning the plant.. So, I have seen where people will reveg after harvest. My question is, coming up on harvest, is there anything I need to do to prepare for that? Also, when I harvest, how much growth should I leave on the existing plant? There is not a ton of vegetation left on this plant. Everything is pretty much flower. There are definitely some lower buds that I could leave on there. Will that be enough? And then, once I harvest, should I pull the plant from the soil, trim the roots, and put it in a smaller pot? Or just leave it in the pot that it is and get the lights backup to 18 or 24 hours?

When you chop leave some lower flowers on the plant. Switch the lighting back to veg and eventually new growth will pop up out of the flowers you left. I always cut 1/2 of the flowers I left on the plant in half, those seem to wanna reveg faster.

By "cutting the flowers in half" do you mean, cut the top half off of the flower? Or cut down the middle and split the flower? Sorry if that seems like a really dumb question. Lol

I probably would have left a bit more on it than that. DO NOT OVER WATER IT. DO NOT WATER IT LIKE YOU DID WITH ALOT OF WATER WHEN IT WAS BUDDING.
THE PLANT HAS VERY LITTLE BIOMASS NOW, AND IS NOT DOING MUCH IN THE WAY OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
I would maybe use 1/4 the amount of water you were using before the chop, and a very mild veg solution.
But dont over water, or over fertilize it, or it will be wet for a week or more.
I myself would put it under 24/7 light period if possible.

I just leave some small buds on the plant and all the leaves then just stick it back to veg either 18/6 or 24/7. I don't transplant or do anything special other than keep it watered. The less you do the more likely the success. I've revegged a ton of plants even males after they've flowered and I've collected pollen. I used pollen from a revegged male that flowered for a second time on a couple branches of my outdoor plants this year.

Here's a female I reversed for feminized pollen then revegged and grew it out normal.
