well thats one way.....but what your talking about is RE-vegging a plang after it has been harvested. this is an ok method but some plants do not reveg as well. so for me the best way to make a mother plant is to.............
1.grow from seed abunch of plants
2.once the plants are old enough, take clones from each plant.
3.once the clones have rooted, flower the clones and keep the plants that were from the seed in veg(18/6)
4. after you have havested the clones (seeded plant still in veg), taste and sample the plant you like the best, and keep that plant as a mother.
