Good book. I hope to someday visit the apple forests in Kazakhstan. Another good book is The Emperor Wares No Clothes. By Jack Herrer.

Here is some hemp one of my clients grew until it died. It didn’t do anything special just withered away:

Sun cured hash, anyone?

My unharvested plants look similar, but idk if death by freezing is what the op had in mind by natural death, probably old age death was the question, which would be death by…mold, maybe?

And what are we supposed to be impressed by? Looks like it needs a tetanus shot.

You harvest the whole plant, then cut it down so only 3 nodes wil be left and send it into veg with 14 hours+ !? That works !? 
Down to 3rd node would only be harvesting around 3/4 of the plant, but would need to revert back to at least 18 hr
not to impress, i did it for shits and giggles.
when young heard of it. so i grew a plant
just to try it. some one in thread mentioned it.
so i thru the photos of it up.

I have to try that.
You cut the buds down there so only the leaves remain ?
Basically yes, I’ve heard of a few leaving lower buds but at that point what’s the use of that. You want the plant to focus on growth back outward & don’t want to end up root bound. Transplant up & dump myco in the hole before setting. Return to veg light cycle & keep humidity & temp up for best chances. I go to one to resprout where I chopped her at once but took to long & was a funny looking plant after lol

I’m more curious about the cannabinoid composition in plants grown to the end of their life cycle. Of course everyone would guess “it will all be CBN” but I would love to see what’s really in there. I really want to see what the test results of extracting from these plants would be. We all know these cannabinoids can flip and distort to totally different things and in a living plant pumping out tons of chemicals attempting to reproduce I would expect a shift in more than one cannabinoid.
I’ll crowd fund $20 for someone to grow a plant all the way to the end of its life and pull a quick crude extract to get tested. Grow log would be interesting.
I think we should use the crowd fund model more on this forum to encourage people to test things (both analytics and processes) that would not be financially viable. Maybe not this idea but when a group full of people are all saying “huh” I think it’s a good time to all throw down 20 bucks and have someone get answers.

If it’s really “all CBN” then people are wasting their times doing synthetic conversions when they could just grow it. I seriously doubt that’s the case though.

It’s called monster cropping. Leaving a portion of a flowering plant, put back in veg, force reveg. She takes 3 weeks to recover, then BAM! Crazy weird tight growth.
My record is a plant clipped at 8 weeks from flip, to reveg and grow roots from a cloned branch.

What’s the longest anyone’s been able to make a plant live with that method you think?
I’ve heard as far as 3 reveg cycles after flowering each one to full harvest.
Not too many people do/try this method. It takes a bit to recover and start vegging. It could also lead to the chance of hermies from stress. Theres only a handful of rhreads/posts I’ve seen in a long time about this. Maybe ic, riu.
I could try it with a plant. I chop 3/24. I can just put her back in the clone room light.
