The idea is not for the branch to stand back up, but often they do, or at least part way up.Then you just bend it at another place.
Nice deskription , I must try this ( super cropping ) while 3 weeks into flowering, not ideal but my durban Poison get's to big already only 10-12 inch from led , and at least 7-10 days of fast growing...anything else maybe?? Had in mind to learn it but in veg - fase .....If you just bend it over it will likely break, you pinch the stem with a finger and thumb until it crushes and then bend it. The spot where it bends will heal itself and form a knuckle that is much thicker than the rest of the stem.
If you don't want to supercrop then you could just crush the stem to make it stronger. Putting a fan blowing over the tops of the plants causing them to sway will have the same effect. The constant moving damages the stem and makes it repair itself, making it stronger.
Morning Here , It looks great , one is almost as before ; the top is moving agaist light as the other one but 75-85 degrees, but looking good, already the smaller tops is leaning towards light. :) . Fun 1:st time with super cropping...:) When I want :) .When it actually snaps hold the branch back straight how it was before super cropping then tape it with a piece of masking tape long ways. I use approximately 2 inch long piece of masking tape along the stem then wrap it. When you finish the branch will almost be standing straight again, this is good.
If it wilts chop it about 1 inch or as much as possible below the break. If it is healthy in 1 week remove the tape.
I was able to use a metal halide two weeks into flowering. It kept about ten or so just tripled up.? Approximately what's the best day to crop girls right into flowering at about 1 footer?. Say a 60 day flower cycle. I'm looking for more information on getting a triple top, single cola girly. View attachment 628723 This plant was snipped. Its triple top was very thick. Cola. I am trying this again soon. Watchathink??
be careful super cropping gotta walk some of them into it dont wanna start cropping then snap some of your nice tops .. like smerb said roll it in your fingers a bit until you feel it getting pliable then squeeze and bend..
but isn't the whole idea of super cropping is bending that top down to get more top while keeping the one you bent? i mean if you are not gonna let the top you bent come back up you might as well just top/chop.. i tie everything down still even when super cropping.. but if i notice a spot i bent is not catching up i will tie it up and put it in a better spot to get even with the cannopy
