The genetics are contained in the plant you love so much..cloning will give you the exact same plants!!!!
And as long as you don't clone from a clone over and over you WON'T see any diminish in potency!
In fact..I'll prove it!
This is my best White Russian offspring..
Now next crop I'll post pics of the White Russians at 6 weeks (which is where I am at now) and you will see that they are the same..
If I had a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer I would show you the numbers..but I lost that ability when I stopped working with Advanced nutrients in their medical cannabis testing..
Also..what criteria are you using to select your future crops from seed? My White Russian mother was the most heavily covered in resin..grew the fastest..and had a stronger smell than the ones I let go..
And as luck would have it..my WR mom is also polyploidal..so the buds are heavier..stickier..and have been growing faster than the other WR clones I took..
Anyway..heres a few picks..I re-vegged my moms because I had to..they were sexed outside and had to come in and go under lights..
The first pics are the original mothers (from back in August)..after about 3 weeks growth in veg..
They would have produced alot if I flowered them again..but I know I can get more in the span of a year with clones than with re-vegging..
The next pics are the best WR offspring I got in my garden..I'll have some pics tommorow as well since I am harvesting another garden of mine..
If all works out the way it should I may have cannabis as potent as 22% THC..
Johnny Hempseed Reviewed by Johnny Hempseed on . Return a harvested plant to veg? Comments? Hey all, I've been growing from seed (bagseed from someone whose friend grows Sweet Tooth and Strawberry Cough... could I be so lucky?) and am almost finished up with my first grow. There are a couple beautiful standouts in the crop that I would love to revert to veg and turn into mothers; however, I've read that by allowing a plant to complete its flowering cycle and then putting it back in veg can reduce its genetic integrity and potency. Is this something any of you have done, and with Rating: 5
