Supercropping

PatMcCrotch
PatMcCrotchstarted grow question 4 years ago
Would it be wise for me to supercrop my tallest plant right now? I may end up maxing my lights out to the highest point, but was wondering if supercropping would be wise. It will only be the top. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

yes you can though the space you have its not really doing any harm or causing dark spots I would only super crop or snap the stem if I say have a tent full of clones and one large plant which actually did happen it slowed her down considerably though and I was lucky i didn't herm her in flower they tend not to put up with that much stress even tiny light leaks can be enough to ruin your whole grow. Though they are your plants you do what you want bro :) They are looking ace :) If you had filled the space abit more then maybe it would be beneficial but I don't think it will be in this stage. I would suggest if you really want to do something to tie them down to your pots cause LST can be done in flower and it wont stress your lady and yu can open up more light. maybe consider getting some netting so you can move the colas around alot more and free up light space :) Great looking plants anyway pal best of luck for harvest :) 👊

Super cropping can be very beneficial in places where you have to keep in check the height of the plant but it is high stress training which means that if you perform it incorrectly you can end up losing the branch . what you have to Keep keep in mind is quite simple bend the branch but in a way that you don’t completely severed her and it will be better if you give her a little bit of support after you do high stress training Until she is fully strong again in 1 to 2 days time I have perform in the past this technique in my own tent to control a wedding cake that was getting out of control did quite a bit of those Long branch and they end up having a very nice heart harvest so it is a good technique to use just be careful not to break completely the branches or to damage her in a way that she cannot come back from it

I would advise against it. Massage the stem to warm it up and slowly bend it down and tie it to the height you want.
