Revegging question

[slartibartfast4]

Greetings all As per normal i have a few seed grown plants that turned out better than expected that i would like to reveg indoors in order to have clones for next year however i find myself with somthing of a dillema as a couple of the plants i would like to reveg are also part way along to producing seed. Normaly in order to reveg i would dig the plant cut it back to a few shoots trim the roots remove any flower buds and put under 24/7 light however i would really like allow the seed to mature so my question is will i reduce my chances of a succesfull reveg if i leave the seed to mature and will the seed mature normally if i keep the plant under 24/7 lighting.
To me it would seem that the plants chances of revegging would decrease if it is allowed to mature some seed and thereby complete it's normal life cycle however i am hoping that by keeping the plant under 24/7 light from the get go i might be able to get the best of both worlds (both clones and seed) and live happily ever after. Any input, theories or personal experiance would be greatly appreciated and i will keep yoou posted on any progress i make.

I would leave it under 12/12 until the seeds are mature and then cut it back and go to 24/0. Im not sure what would happen if you were to leave half mature seeds and try to reveg.....

Thanks for the input and while that does sound like the smart way to play it i have to say my curiosity is peaked and i am going to see what happens under 24hr lighting . Will report back in a while.

You might send Stoner133 a PM and see if he has done it before.....

You should have no problem revegging a flowering plant. It takes a few weeks under 24/0 so try and time your seeds finishing in that window to ensure your seeds are mature and viable.

good luck

I have done this make sure the seeds have at least 30 days and most will be viable I personally let the revegs finish until the seeds start to become poppers popping out of the bud.Seeds are a necessity as I do not need to keep a mother when i'm not here to care for it.I pollinate the reveg never my bud for smoking. That I clean and give away. To those less fortunate.

These two plants were regenerated after producing a set of seeds and as it happens, I used a similar finishing technique.

My original plan was to finish the seed grown plants at the same time my newly planted seeds were showing sex. The presence of mostly immature seeds meant they would need a couple more weeks to finish, but my next planting needed vegetative lighting to resume normal growth.

They spend the final two weeks maturing seed under vegetative lighting.

Those same plants are now flowering for a third time this year.
