Re-veg or run f2's?

TL;DR: I have a great pheno I don't want to toss yet with f2 seeds. Let her die and run the seeds? Or re-veg her for another shot at being cloned?

I have a group of 5 females from a pollen chuck last year, Copper Chem x Hindu Hashplant. I had 3 males and 5 fems, 2 males released pollen while chopping. One male was chem dom and the other had a hashplant body. There's a few seeds in each plant and I think they came from the hashplant male.

Anyway, I just finished week 8 today, and one of the plants has this lemon chemical spray mixed with an earthy pineapple, all on a hashplant structure. The pineapple smell is starting to get stronger and the smells are always developing on this one. Could smell lemon since the third week of 12/12.

None of the clones survived, but would love to have this pineapple chemdawg pheno again. Should I re-veg her or sprout some of her seeds and see what I get? I don't mind running f2's of the other plants, but this one is different, she's not the frostiest, but she has the loudest terps. Smell is starting to get past the air filter a little. What would you do?

This cross of mine is the start of what will be a 3 way cross

Both.

Im thinking, I should stay to my original plan in this -make a nasty offensive smelling bud with the strongest smoke. And there are some garlic smells, sour ones and sweet ones too. Look better but are just much smaller plants; I vegged for 5 weeks from seed (2 week veg on my count). I'll just re-veg the best plant and run her f2's with her.

Can only keep about 2 or 3 mothers/fathers at a time. Would love to be able to run multiple pots, but right now I'm using a single 45 gallon pot (filled to about 40 gal incl. mulch) in a 3x3 veg tent and 4x4 flower perpetual. Yes, its a ridiculous pot size to transfer each to back and forth. It's all the soil I had from when I was running multi-pots till last fall. Didn't know what to do with extra soil so I'm using it all.

I guess I answered my own question. If the pineapple doesn't make the cut, oh well. I still have about 45 seeds left of the f1 to find another. Plus her f2s.

Goodluck!

Re veg you can run 100 more F2’s and not find that pheno again..

I was thinking about that too. I'll re-veg all of them and pick the best after they're in jars. The smell on the pineapple is turning more earthy. Not the frostiest plant but, as I told myself, I'm really attracted to it lol. I'm sure, as it has a lot of smell, it won't be a bad smoke. The frostiest of plants lacks smell right now. About 2 to 3 weeks to harvest

I'll re-veg and move forward with my pollen Chuck
