Athosanswered grow question 6 years ago I do it as long as the plant keep stretching; the squatter the plant, the better use of the light the plant will make. I LST and / or supercrop the whole 3 weeks of preflower / stretch. Although in my case, been a micro grower, with a low powered light, it might be more critical. IF the height goes out of control, I supercrop aggressively.
