What if I revert from the flowering phase back to the vegitation phase, how will my plants react? I'd like to see them grow larger, then switch back to 12/12.

Thoughts?

You can do it, bear in mind you'll loose 2-3 weeks of calendar time, other than that, the plants will go back to veg.

What will happen to the buds on it? Shrivel up and die? Or should I cut 'em off?

the established buds with shriven up and slowly revert back to mutated tops, but the whole process of veg-flower-veg will shock the plants and you will lose at LEAST 2 weeks of time on your plants, and it also lowers the integrity of the plants making them weaker in the end unless your a scientist when it comes to Vit-B.....

Don't cut off the buds. That's where the new growth comes from.

You can do it but like everybody said it will set you back some time.If you can why not just clone and start a new grow while you let these finish up.
