The Great Plant Regeneration FreebieWhat is plant regeneration? Let's say you've grown some plants, your near the end of the flowering period, and your getting ready to harvest. You could take your fruits and flowers, cut everything down, and start over...but there is another option. Of Leaf and StemYour other option is to carefully harvest your produce and try to regenerate the plants. Any tissue above ground that is not a stem has the chance of growing when you try plant regeneration.First, make sure you leave the plants with a little something besides stem. Any green leaf material or flower material you leave on will help. Treat 'm NiceNext, water thoroughly. The water should have about 500 ppm of a well balanced all purpose fertilizer. Add to this 10 ml/gallon Thrive Alive B1. I use Maxsea 16-16-16 myself. If you do not use a seaweed based fertilizer (like Maxsea), add 10 ml/gallon Maxicrop liquid seaweed.After you've watered your plants, change the light cycle back to a vegetative light cycle (18 on, 6 off). Or, if you have a separate veg area, simply return your plants to the veg area. This will begin plant regeneration if there is any hope of it. You will want to grow them vegetatively until you begin to see vigorous growth appear, and at least a week or two after that. Next Harvest...Half the Time!Once you are satisfied with your progress, you can return the plants to the flowering stage light cycle and treat them as you normally would.I would recommend you only regenerate the same plants once. Each time you try it, the plants are in a little worse shape and their soil gets in a little worse shape than the time before. Leave the plant regeneration page and |
