Monster Cropping Pruning..

[bankcee]

so I have an issue. a buddy weeks back had gifted me some unknown strain that was already like 2-3 weeks into flowering.. we'll I switched back to veg and I've never really successfully done this and this time I think it'll be a success if I can clean her up the proper way.. where do I even begin pruning her what do I take off?

TIA yall..

I'd start by taking off all the dead and sick leaves.

okay will do there but how should the plant look after its all pruned and ready for a full veg?

Well. .. after she stops throwing three lobed leaves, and starts throwing five lobed leaves, you'll be getting close.

 

[bankcee]

but do I prune everything below the normal veg leaves?

I start with the dead and dying leaves, and see what you're left with before I did anything else...post a picture when you're ready.

You have a boron deficiency there... twisted and thick leaves, accompanied by a Calcium deficiency which will also show deformed leaves.

Probably caused by stress, under watering, low humidity, or too high of a pH... Try to get it at or below 6.2.

Takes a long time to fully revert back to veg i say leave it alone and let her do her own thing remove dead leaves but do not prune plant poor girl has gone to hell and back .. let her recover pruning will only stress her and take her longer to revert to veg
Your on her time now get used to it View attachment 596735 View attachment 596736

she's already started throwing her serrated 3 finger leaves and some 5.. isn't she back in veg?

Not until she stops throwing three lobed leaves as well.

I took another look at that plant... You know what I'd do?... I'd take as many clones as I could off of her, and that would be the story of her.

That said, I have EZ Cloners... And cloning is nearly always guaranteed to be successful.
Here's a couple of pics taken a moment ago.
