Reveg nightmare

[Gatekeeper777]

I have a plant that I flowered in soil and it turned out to be some very excellant bud.
I harvested her 3 weeks ago Put her in a bigger pot
and put her under 24/0 of 1200 watts cfl and a fan on low, folar sprayed her every day sometimes 3 times a day.
ad wattered he every third day.
She looks bad, very bad. leaves curling under and even more leaves starting to brown.
No new growth detected.
Should I give her a glorious viking funeral?
I left enough green on her that she should allready be vegging.
I thing she is one for the history books.
What do you guys think? I would really love to save her as she was a very very potent med plant!
Thanks

Have you read any threads regarding this subject...? (there's one in my signature, if interested)
1. Why a bigger pot?
2. Foliar spraying too often can cause mold issues, and restrict her ability to respirate and heal.

Did you at least flush when you moved her (them) to 24/0?

Leaving too much bud material and leaves, (in my opinion) keeps the flowering hormones on-board, and causes her delays in reverting back to veg.
Old growth often dies, as the power to re-veg is in the stem and roots, not the old foliage. The only thing the old foliage is needed for, is an additional boost of food and energy prior to the new growth showing and taking over.

If you stop now, failure is guranteed. If you keep trying to pull it through, you gurantee yourself a chance for success and the knowledge that comes with it.

I put he in a bigger pot beause she was in a 2 gallon pot and she was getting root bound. I did flush her out and then I moved her to a 20 gallon tub so i can maker her a mother and won't have to worry about not having enough room for roots for a while.
I will keep going as you suggest.
Yes I have read some reveg threads. But I do not recall anything saying leaving to much bud causes delay to reveg.
That may be a reason.
Thanks Rusty.

I took a loupe to look very very closely and I did see very very tint leaves starting to emerge.
Also I removed most of the old bud and dried leaves and found bugs. tiny red ones and spider mites. so i am goona have to apply safers soap or dish soap or something.
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Clean-cutting the roots (not ripping, folding, spindling or otherwise mutilating...but a clean cut with a sharp knife) and placing the remaining rootball in a smaller pot saves soil, nutes, ph adjusted water (if applicable) and space. If it's done with a little care, she won't even notice them gone. :thumbsup:

A theory I developed after many, many re-veggings, and one I truly believe is accurate. And regardless, why allow the plant to add even the tiniest ammounts of bud mass, when fresh shoots and reverting to vegetative state is your goal? Anything that delays this...is an additional delay.
