Well I did searched for it but I guess some mistakes bring some news.
As far as I knew it didn’t make sense to re veg a autoflower because it don’t stop the cycle.
Well… stoned af I forget to take the plant out and recycle the soil and let the pot of a very crushed plant by the door of my closet.
After the firs 2 weeks I increased light power and so I had to let the door open for temperature control makink the gorilla leftovers in the pot by the door it started getting light and it is growing back!
You can check a picture 1 day ago and I will keep you posted but it is growing back.
I guess this would become a giant auto plant because it is growing with a big root system from last run.
Anyone had this incident?
When I saw it growing back I just had it near the light and watered with vegg feeding and it is responding well, Tomorrow will place it under the lights inside the closet and fingers crossed for a nice return!
Interesting. Most autos are mixed with what fools refer to as drug Cannabis. Id imagine the photoperiod genes being responsible for the reveg. Got some autos currently in a greenhouse may try this sooner than later.
Who is the breeder? If she’s revegging then she can’t be a true autoflower, more likely to be a fast photo (photo x auto) with a heavy auto lean (but not locked in yet) .
…my 2¢
As an avid auto grower, I’m keen to follow along and see where it goes
This plant is from a free seed from Eurogrow, Gorilla XXL Auto, and is the best plant I harvested so far, good brunch distribuition, good yeld, good high, plenty of flavour and smell.
Clearly growing back after being harvested, no signs of flowering yet.
Come on, you can see the main stem sawed off… This is overwhelming… Anyway it is a seed given and sold as auto and she have been on 18-6 all her live except when I harvested.
Not quite sure if it is a blessing or just normal, I recall that I harvested the Blue amnesia Auto at the same time and the pot was side to side with this Gorila and I noticed that the blue amnesia had some new leaves before I cut down all the stems so It would hav the same behaviour under the same conditions but it was more distant to the door and light than the gorilla so I am keeping this one to see what will happen.
If I have a plant that is really good, I will try it a second time with other strains.
Autos will continue to veg and reveg to some degree after flower, how much and to what degree is pretty plant dependent and conditions dependent. It’s not worth much except for a second chance to make some beans.
Interesting, I’ll have to give it another look. My experiences have been very different with autos, I’ve tried five times to reveg different autos, each time with no joy .
I’m genuinely surprised (and excited) to hear that you’ve managed to reveg, pollinate and keep an auto going long enough to then produce seed. How old were they when they finally gave up the ghost? Were there any special tricks that you used to keep them going?
Then in an overwhelming majority of cases you’d be better off starting a second bean. You’ll get a second harvest, but it’ll be very small usually. You’d be better off lollipopping and topping and putting the cuttings in a cloner if you want to try to get max yields and a second harvest.
It’s not new, but not a lot of people have messed with it and just believe what they’ve heard about autos.
It’s not like a clock like most think. In theory, you might be able to keep a clone of an auto going indefinitely, but I haven’t seen a long enough reveg to get much more than an ounce or so.
I’ve played around with auto reveg clones you name it and totally not worth the time and trouble compared to just popping another seed. Like the previous post mentioned there is so much variation from autoflower to autoflower that it’s hard to predict what will happen. Ruderalis with these modern genetics mixed in can produce some interesting results
Autos have really evolved from the first few roughly 20 or so years ago… The fast flower movement kind of interesting too with ruderalis x photo. Lately I’ve been flowering my autoflowers under 12/12 with pretty good results but prob less experienced than you. Normally they are kind of an afterthought in my veg area
As stated above by @Mad_Barry true autos don’t reveg, sometimes ive seen when under developed lowest node leaf/bud points like what you left are now whats left the plant continues on growing them but only for a couple weeks then finishing out as well and not “re-vegging” persay.
Again as stated above that’s likely a auto leaning fast photo period variant that flowers at longer day lengths or something cause it indeed looks to be revegging how a photoperiod does, but contrary to others id say let it run and see what happens.
