how to reveg

I would like to reveg this plant. Should I cut off more of the main stem? Can I just put her under a 18/6 schedule going forward?

Did you leave any buds on her? I believe you need buds for the reveg. This may work, but I would recommend just putting her into a veg situation, so 18/6 etc etc. Also I have a few reveg projects going on right now in my diaries if you care to look

Yeah it’s still possible even though she’s small and skinny. Looking at the plant she’s stressed and clearly tired from flowering but the important part is that she’s still green and has living nodes. That’s all a plant needs to reveg. This stage always looks rough so what you’re seeing is normal not failure. Don’t cut anything else off now. Just put her under an 18/6 light schedule and keep the light on the gentle side so she isn’t pushed while weak. For the first week or so, either plain water or very light veg feeding is enough. The goal right now isn’t growth it’s recovery. She’ll probably sit there doing almost nothing for a couple of weeks then you’ll see strange little shoots and single blade leaves popping out of the nodes. That’s a good sign not a bad one. After that, normal leaves will slowly return and you can start shaping her again👊👍

Is size an issue? Does it make things more convenient for you by pruning it? Because it's not super healthy, i'd leave it as is. If it's lacking healthy leaves, you are better off with all it has, not less. if it were more robust, you could probably prune for convenience without concern. Just stop giving it a long dark cycle and it will revege. You do not need buds to revege. It might take longer, but new growth tips will sprout from plant. New axillary buds (what nascent side branching is called) will form.. new terminal buds will form. I've seen a new growth tip form out of a chopped autoflower outside, lol... just the stump reamined. I'm sure you've seen new growth tips form where you have lollipopped before, right? same thing. Definitely possible and will happen with time.

Can't see anything that can re-veg. A plant will not just sprout new growths, re-vegging involves reverting old growth into new growth. You needed to leave some small buds to regrow into new branches. Leave the leaves.........they do not "cost" energy, they are the only way a plant MAKES energy!

Don't stress it by physical injury anymore. Yes 18-6 is ok, 16-8 is way better. The plant repairs its cells/ repairs dna damage in scotoperiod. They need dark just as much as they need dark.

I would suggest a yes - just a bit + 2 or of the long arms. And remove all hard damaged leafparts - they just cost energy. After removing everything what is unneeded for new grow, the plant could flip back week 4-6. She would look like that. With some fresh not overfeeded soil + grow nutri it could work. Best wishes with that!
