Just curious, never grown my own.

When a plant is ready to be harvested with nice sticky juice buds.
Do you kill the plant?? ie chop the trunk and hang dry??
Or do just cut off the buds?? and let the healthy plant live to
bud another day??

thanks
 
My personal thoughts are to harvest the whole plant, allow to dry, and don't handle the buds if you can help it. Your dry when the stem snaps. Also if you can keep all your trimming you can make some hash goo. Read Stoney Buds latest project under hash. He has some great pics and walks you through it very well.

i asked the very same question a few months back, and from what i`ve researched and been informed-you can cut all the bud off and get the gal to revert back to veg. however, your best to just give it the chop and grow clones, which will be ready for harvest long before your re-veged gal.
this is because it will be stressfull on her to revert back, and it will take quite some time for her to get back to a stable veg state. if you do it there will probably be some mutations and problems which may result in a re-vamped hermie:eek: , so i`d just grow the clones man and save you all the trouble of trying to re-veg. MJ is an anual plant, which means it lives,flowers and dies all in a year.
i think i got that all correct, if not i`m sure someone will jump in and point it out,lol. bottom line-don`t re-veg, give em the chop."IMHO"
:spit: :joint: :fly: :lama: ;)
 
i've got both clones and reveg goin right now, the reveg was not difficult, took just as long as the clones did and she is the bushiest p-lant i have seen in my entire life. just my outlook on it. peace!:)
 
this should be in the harvesting section..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i`ve never actually done this myself, so my info may be a lil` fragmented.
however, from what i`ve researched, your right.
although "IMHO", i think that it`s not worth the hassle dude.
maybe someone else can jump in if i`ve got something wrong.:lama: :peace: :stuff-1125699181_i_
peace, out man.
 
U got 'er... but isn't worth the hassle imo.

lol...it's advice like this that I read 400 posts on this forum to get.:)
 
screw the reveg... its a hassle like KADE said... on the other hand... Cutting crazy big clones a week before you send it to bud... means you can cycle a lot faster then revegging a big plant
