My mate has a plant that is nearly ready to be harvested. It is his first grow. He has been told by someone that he can pick the ripe buds off the plant, and then take it back to the grow cycle and start again. Is this information correct? What do you guys think of this?

do u meen RE VEG? if yes he is right aslong as you leave some bud on the plant and put under 18h light after 4 or 5 weeks your plant will back to veg with new shoots and branches

Cut the main stalk down to the point where below several growth tips or buds are remaining. Return the plant to a vegetative fertilizer and photo period. Over the next several weeks, the plant will elongate and develop new upward growth.
You should also trim back the rootball to about 1/2 its size,trimming equal amounts from all sides.Repot into fresh soil.Give it a very light N feeding/water & in about 2-4 weeks you'll be able to take cuttings.

yeah re-veg how does he do this? Can he snip the end buds off and leave the little pop-corn buds on the stem, or does he pick the bigger buds off like berries and leave the stems?

Cheers mate

I am revegging my NL/haze baby right now good advice!

IMO reveging plants looks weird while they're readjusting to the veg cycle. even though they look al weird and retarded don;t worry about it.. just give the girl some time and a few weeks later you'll have a nice normal looking plant again.

good luck

Yeah, loads of foxtails and circle almost shell looking leaves.

If re-vegging though i'd give them 24hr light til they come back for ya, can sometimes take up to 4-5 weeks to get the 5 & 7 bladed leaves back so don't give up on them, i gave up on 16 plants before and they was massive.
