weed plant cut off from stem will it re-grow?

**Rebs4220** · 06-05-2012, 04:11 AM

ok so a buddy of mine came to my house with a weed plant, but when i seen it it didnt look like no weed plant, it was in a pot with only the stem sticking out of the soil no nodes no leafs But a massive root system seems like the plant was cut off, i was wondering if it is possible if it can re-grow? idk if it can grow New nodes and leafs wondering if its possible for it too??

any idea thanks!

if there is nothing left then i'd GUESS no.... it is possible to Re-Veg a plant, i've seen it done, they leave the lower 1/3 of the plant including some of the lower bud sites and revert it back to 18/6 (or disired vegging hours) ... 4 weeks later you have a nice looking plant again ..... however

yeild is decreased from what i've heard
the root system will be old, so it won't perform aswell... also you'll have to feed her correctly as you won't have anything left in the soil for it to feed on

it is possible but its just not worth the agro! ..... grow a mother and take clones from it .... much more economic

Give it a try, but I doubt it will live.

If it does live, let me know and post some pics.

Not unless he named it Jesus

I think it needs at least one or two leaves but....I've seen trees start to regrow from the stump after being cut down. Not a fair comparison since mj is an annual.

if there are no nodes for new growth to sprout, as far as i know, no it wont grow back

It wont grow back. Plants that are cut off are done and wont do anything. you need at least a few leaves to get it going again and it would still be a wimpy plant for a while. Start fresh.
