Mature Pre-Harvest + Seedling + Regenerated

Description

A lone seedling was discovered at a deep edge of the original large container in which all 3 plants were originated seated; this seedling was rescued during repotting and may be kept for later if only as a temporary houseplant.

The severely butchered almost-fully-harvested plant in the centre is already in process of being vegetatively regenerated for clones (by being isolated in the kitchen during nights where it's treated to very long days again), and even for another small but potent harvest. This is done by means of a non-fatal harvesting technique which leaves a bit of strategic greenery on the plant, which is returned to a regimen of very long days like during mid-summer. In short order, the plant returns back to vegetative mode and starts to make nothing but branches and leaves again. Clones may be taken from such a known good plant, and later it may be harvested once or twice more.

The almost intact plant remaining is very mature and on the edge of senescence, or a second childhood as it were during which a few isolated pollinating male flowers may pop up in a last-gasp attempt at fertilization; such "female pollen" contains all-female genetics and can be used later for so-called "female seeds" without recourse to very toxic methods of forcing seeds to produce females only. This last plant is displaying a tendency to start small faint patches of mold on its leaves, and has thus been progessively trimmed manually as needed; this reduces the need for later trimming and prevents fungal progression into the buds. It will be harvested imminently, perhaps after a couple more days to permit more mineral clearing after its one last flush a day ago. Its age is almost exactly 6 months, the slight majority of which was in vegetative mode; it's been in full flower for about 10 weeks now and is almost ready for harvest. Test indicate sufficient mineral clarity and a definite sedative effect due to the more full profile of cannabinoids than can be gained with an earlier harvest.
