Week 5 Veg looking pretty rough. The leaves are on the second node, any chance she'll bounce back?

Hmm, wonder now. Lets say we have harvested a plant but roots are still alive, cant we do same stuff as with tomatoes for example, so we could use those roots with cutings?

Growth should be vigorous with already huge roots after flushing obviously but better in aeroponics or hydro.

I've honestly never seen this before. Is it that it stressed too much from too extensive a topping?

In all seriousness though we want to help, how did she end up topped above the first node?

She wasnt looking too good so I tried my genius trick which I'm naming the 100% defoliation technique. No leaves left after topping to the second node.

Here she is a few weeks ago looking rough. (before the 100 % leaf removal)

Looks good to me pre topping. She will grow out if you don't "defoliate" anymore

Leaves and roots drive growth, you will never grow more leaves with out roots and vice versa.

It actually looked good. Why did you top so low?

The top left plant in this pick has been topped to 16 tops and it’s week five right now. So you need to revisit some studies. Ask anyone here we will help in anyway. I post the pic to show where you could and should be.

OK all, just playing with you a bit. I made the mistake of mainlining a bit too early and when I tied down the main branches at the third node, I lost both ! OUCH !

So I cut off all remainiing leaves (huge mistake, The roots will suffer) and was surprised to see a few leaves popping up at the second node. I've decided to give her a lot of love and learn what will happen topping at the second node. Will she create two new branches left and right for my mainline? This is where the plant creates 3 finger leaves too, not the full leaves at the third node and above. I'm wondering if topping works ok from the second node.

More of an experiment at this point to learn from.

I'm pretty sure you're just gonna grow root with those leaves right there. good luck. Experimenting is always fun.
