Did I leave enough to reveg these plants?

Top plant barely yes, second plant will also re-grow but your yield will be miniscule. Say 5-10 grams cured. Not worth the effort.

Next time (I've done this a lot) start your harvest by cutting off the top half of the plant. You want your re-grower to be nearly half as tall as it was at harvest. Completely harvest the top half as soon as possible. Wait too long and all the little sugar leaves curl into the buds and make trimming a nightmare. After finishing with the top, start removing the buds more than 8 inches or so from the main stem. Ideally you want to leave a double handful of greenery concentrated at or near the base of the plant. You just cut them down a bit too much, eh?

Good luck, BigSteve.

PS - a few years ago I posted a thread with before and after pix of a plant I was re-growing. Do a search on "re-growing" and see if that helps.

Hey big Steve thanks for the reply. The smaller plant was grown 12-12 from seed. That is why it is so small. So you think I'm wasting my time trying to reveg her?

I'd say that is a matter of environment. I wouldn't keep one of our HD bulbs going for just the runt. As you will have the light going for #1 you might as well keep #2 along for the ride. As you will be re-vegging at 20/4 (or close to that) it is an ideal time to grow a couple autos alongside your re-veggers. If you don't top or FIM autos you will likely get a short, single cola plant that probably won't grow much wider than the pot it is in. Many finish at 24-36 inches. Point is that now is the time to take advantage of the bulb running and squeeze in a couple autos as they can be made to fit just about anywhere, space-wise. Just a thought....

Good luck, BigSteve.

Why don't you just order new seeds or in future clone,if it's a feminized seed grown plant ,then there's a chance of seeds,there is with reg seed grown plants too but far less.get some bud shots up,I am wanting to do this in future,The only reason that I would reg gen a plant is if it was a clone only strain,and there was no way I could get it again.

Good luck dude,was the holy grail a good producer,I would have left a bit more on the holy grail
