Re-veging a plant outdoors

[organics]

After harvesting my first crop this April (thank you all at oz stoners for the great information) I started experiencing growing withdrawals ;-) To ease my symptoms I decided to plant an outdoor winter crop with the full expectation that all of the plants would die before maturity. A couple of months have passed and I now have around 20 healthy 1 to 2 foot tall sexed plants in pots, half White Widows the others assorted bag seed.

 

The current plan is to seed the best of the bunch and smoke the rest. My roommate got me thinking however. Since we are only a couple of months from planting time for the summer season could these plants be grown and the buds harvested when ready. Then re-vegetated and planted in the ground as the coming seasons crop?

 

I don't have access to, or a suitable spot to setup a proper grow room. A temporary setup with compact fluros would probably be possible if it was necessary. However completing the whole process outdoors would be preferable.

 

Has anyone got experience doing this? Am I totally wasting time even considering such an experiment?

Yes you most certainly can, and you can get some REALLY big plants or plants that train well to run on the ground. For cover from the sky birds. I moved this one after I took a oz and 3/4 of good buds off of it.You will note that I cut the buds off , and the small amount of brown leaves in the lower sections is what small buds and few small leaves I left on it.It is Summer here.This plant took two months with not much care to come back.It has started with alot more strength than I thought it was going to.After all The was a stalk that I used to shitcan. It has three good months yet before the chance of frost so mabye I will get more than the oz and 3/4 I got the first time.Go for it! Good Luck

Kinda skinny,But I can work on that.She is trying to do something. :: I will have to bring her some good dirt as all I have put on this plant was a very small amount of pond grass,on a couple hot days.I beat there is not four gallon of dirt around this plant.I never thought it would have done anything.I pulled up some rocks and threw it in and let her go.That the thing it a weed sometimes you can do too much.especially watering main problem over watering. I will add more pics of the other one that I did this way later if you like.

Depending on where in Aus you live, If you can hold off those plants until late August/early September you can plant them out without flowering. (that is if they aren't already flowering, and still veging). Beleive me, while you can still bud them now...to get them out established early will make for huge plants come Christmas time. Also depending where you live, planting out early may need some protection from frosts.in the form of a plastic barrier (or even near fully encosed if it's still cold at start of sept). I'm hoping to plant out end of August (although i'm still in process of sexing my plants now), so hopefully i can get an early start. Beleive me, when your plants are 7ft tall at christmas and still veging....you'll thank me!!!!
