How will my clones with a nug on top grow??

[Snowbdr1613]

I have some clones that i took a little late and they have little buds on the growing shoot and i dont think there are any other grow shoots....i currently have them on 24 hours of light and i am about to switch them to 12/12...Will these grow one bud and how big can i get them??? Will they get bigger and bigger the longer i grow them or stay the same size and just mature???? Please help

They will get bigger the longer you veg them, then double or triple in size when you go to 12/12. I don't think I understand though. If you took your clones during flower, they need a couple weeks to revert back to the veg stage before they really start growing. I assume you know that switching to 12/12 is for when you want to start budding your plants. At that point they should have been vegged for at least a couple weeks, but more like 6 or 8 is better, depending on your space, etc.

Yes they were reverted back to 24/0 but they havent got any new vegetative growth yet and im ready to put them into my hydro kit so if i put them to 12/12 they will grow one solid nugget??

It's really a lot more important what the plant is ready for than what you are ready for.

Probably they will hermie early because you have stressed the hell out of them. Right now your plant is going through a metamorphisis to re-veg. If you stop it in the middle of that process and tell it to now flower again, it can't be good for the plant.

But, do what you want, it's your plant, your grow.

Clones should be taken in the Veg stage.....If you uve taken cuttings in the flower'in period once the clone roots it 'll asume it still at the same stage so you need to clone and let your clones grow a while,,,Doing it in a rush cant be good but .By the way how big is this clone?.
if its only had 24's light for a few days Stress is all i can think which can affect flowering but like someone said your plant your trip....Best of luck...

No, you need to give them 3 weeks or more to re-veg before returning them to 12/12.
If you switch to 12/12 now, the best you can hope for is hermaphrodites and a seedy crop.

Ok i will leave them vegging...should i cut the bud off so it starts new growth or leave it and it will fix itself???

I'm in the same boat as you, just took some clones at Flower, Day 43, they all have little to med. bud sites, but I wanted to see if they'd root since these bagseeds turned out nicely, and I'm willing to loose a few nugs to new growth potential, and if not oh well, I have 2 other clones that are just starting their flowering adventure...

What do you have for leaves on those clones? And have they rooted yet?
Buds can be a place for rot to start, but if the bud leaves are all that you've got for photosynthesis, you don't have any choice but to leave them on, and the bud along with it.
Generally when you are revegging, removing as much bud mass as possible while leaving leaves is desirable- a high ratio of leaf to calyx is what you want, and if there are any seeds, get them OUTTA there.

There are a few leafs on each clone that arent on the bud itself.... the bud is the growing shoot so i dont know what will happen when i keep vegging them??? do i have to take the bud off so a new shoot will grow?
