can sombody please explain to me the difference between regenerate and rejuvenate? i am currently lookin at the page 142 in 'marijuana growers handbook-the indoor high yeild guide' by Ed Rosenthal. if you have this book you will get what im looking at. if not you will probably know what the difference is.
thankyou

Regenerate - Re*gen"er*ate\ (r?*j?n"?r*?t), v. t. 1. To generate or produce anew; to reproduce; to give new life, strength, or vigor to.

Rejuvenate - tr.v. re·ju·ve·nat·ed, re·ju·ve·nat·ing, re·ju·ve·nates
To restore to youthful vigor or appearance; make young again.
To restore to an original or new condition: rejuvenate an old sofa.
To stimulate (a stream) to renewed erosive activity, as by uplift of the land.
To develop youthful topographic features in (a previously leveled area).

So in the plant world, If you cut a leaf and it grows back, it has been regenerated. If you have a dying plant that you bring back to life, then you have rejuvenated the plant.

Hope this helps,

Keep smokin,

B
