Sub, your absolutely right, it can take forever. 30 days to start re-veggin and 20-30 days or more, to grow into a sizable plant worthy of 12/12. I agree with you, it could cause probs with the plant, but I've done this many times with no problems. When reveggin fertility has a lot to do with it. You can't push the plant too hard too early, you have to wait until it's well into veg. The more I thought about this, the better tossin them out and starting over was sounding. I hate tossin plants !!! Peace
