Rusty's Re-Veg...

[headshake]

hey rusty, do you ever have one that turns into a cantaloupe sized ball of thickness? reason i ask is that i have a current re-veg and she's a thick little tumbleweed of a gal.

if so, is it worth flowering?

thanks.

headshake Reviewed by headshake on 06-02-2009. Rusty's Re-Veg... Thought we needed another re-veg thread, as lately there just doesn't seem to be enough of 'em, lol. I'll be taking the plant, chopping her back to basically a stump with a couple of small branches, and a few small leaves. From there, I'll re-pot her in a larger (5 gallon) pot with fresh soil, to be put back into veg. First off, here's the donor. She's a clone from an un-named medical R&D strain from Reeferman, that I have so boldly named PokerFace. (I used to live in Vegas, thus the Rating: 5

The way I read it he means he had the Kush flowering at 12/12, tried to re-veg by switching to 18/6, but it just kept budding and budding apparently. Where are you DrMota, you need to give us some clarity!

BTW, is that name from the town Mota on Phantasy Star? I loved those games!!

'Mota' is Mexican for 'marijuana', I think :jointsmile:

Correct, The Kush was already 3 weeks deep into 12/12 lighting, put them under 18/6 400w MH vegging room to re-veg but kept developing buds and pistils for about its 2week stay, switched to 24/0 and it quit development of buds and re-vegged in about 1 month.

Mota is Mexican for marijuana
DrMota short for "DoctorRecommendedMarijuanaOnTheAction"

PEACE

Happens often with some of my indica doms. Not sure if it's a residual hormone thing, or perhaps early re-veg stress, but yes..they are worth taking to harvest. One good result is that the internode spacing is minimal, so it's not really wasting energy and resources on stem material, lol. But the buds do get to be full-size and rock-hard.

I've tried extra flushing of the soil, I've raised the lights, I've lengthened the schedule to 20/4, tried adding a little extra nitrogen, and I've tried adding a tad more molasses...but it seems that if they want to stay squat, they're going to stay squat.

DrMota: hmm. I guess I'm still reading it wrong. Are you saying you had them under 12/12 for three weeks, and then tried to re-veg? If so, why didn't you let the plants go till harvest, as you were almost there? Without explination, it didn't sound right.

When the KUSH was obtained it was already 3weeks into 12/12, wanted to take some cuts to continue this strain for gardens, therefore revegged for that purpose...Never would I consider budding then a quarter of the way there decide to re-vegg that may cause stress or worst...HERMIES!

Does that answer all the loopholes?

Hey Rusty do you see any problems with using a reveg for a mother plant? I would think it was ok just wanted to see if you have done it. I have a plant that is alot of thc (alot more then the others) I did clone it but I have been going out of town allot for work and my buddy keeps killing stuff . Anyway this way I can get some clones from her.

[Rusty Trichome]

That's my favorite way to choose a mother plant. Since she's already been through the whole process...you know how she performs. When you re-veg, she'll send-out shitloads of shoots that are perfect for cloning.

:thumbsup: thanks Rusty that helps allot! I really need some new clones room will be done soon. I need to filler up>

[hock8889]

that is correct my friend :thumbsup: Watch BLOW and they say that when they are in Mexico. Damn Gringos looking for mota! LoL

not often someone quotes BLOW...i know the dude...he's had a tough life...

I should have addressed this after the first comment, but I couldn't give a shit about a glorified scumbag of a cocaine dealer, and would like to request you keep references to street drugs and their hero's out of my threads. Not only is the reference against my personal policy, it's against site rules. :wtf:
