Maybe you'd be a more productive member if you did just even a little research before saying stuff that you makes you look like a moron ?Instead of insulting me, maybe you'd be more of a productive member by explaining why I'm a moron. That's not helpful at all, no reason to be condescending.
I guess we are both jerk offs
Hey that's the spirit!
No big deal, my Supercropping is an ongoing process throughout veg and early flower.
I did some supercropping, I meant that I had some stretch taller than some others am still in early dflower, I was told not to by a lot of ppl while I'm in flower, so it was necessary I would say, they doing great since I did, now have a even canopy
I did some supercropping in flower due to the plants stretching way more than I thought. The tops that I supercropped are getting ridiculous buds and are far bigger than the tops I did no training on. So yeah it works well in flowering.
Thank u good sir, what I needed and wanted to hear
It depends on the plant. It fucks up my L.A. Confidential. Makes skinny arms that sag under weight of mid sized buds at best. If you have a plant with FAT colas, then...dammit, I'm thinking of Monster Cropping.
In the end it will really help trich production as well by concentrating its reserves to the tops if you clean up the underneath well esp. I like to top and supercrop right while I induce flower to slow stretch as well. It will really help with fast growers and work in your favor then.
I've done this for over 20 years now. It def makes a difference. It's really just common sense. If a river has a bigger wider stream it's going to let more water flow through, same principle. Stronger stems= bigger buds. It's just a ton of extra work. Some strains like bubba which are slow don't grow as fast because of this though but will produce chunkier buds, but fast growers really benefit from it because it slows them to bush better and hold their weight better later on which naturally will increase bud size. It slows stretch too
Well I too have done it quite a few times but only started after moving inside, never tried outdoors except when the plant broke in its own. Again I have not seen an increase in yield but not saying it doesn't, just not for me lol. I also fail to see how breaking the stem allows for greater flow through the plant. Yes the stalk gets a big Knuckle but has it actually opened it up or just created a bunch of scar tissue, seeing's how it's just a small section of the stem how would it allow for more movement? The river if only made bigger at one point doesn't allow for more flow. Like I said it would be nice to see an actual study done instead of "I do it and it increases yield"....just saying lol. But I do think that yes if the plant is about to start smoking from the heat you have limited options, supercropping being one
