Interested

Would like to know your observations on this project. I would think the supercropped plants were thicker from the 2nd week. Did you top them both? What were the weights for the various plants?

the 1's i supercropped, snapping and leaving the top of the main stem a few nodes down, ended up 3.5-3.75 0z per plant and the rest of em i left completly natural and got 3-3.25 0z per plant, as for piks, my phone n its camera are smashed up n im hopeing to get fixed coz the last beautiful shots are right there that every 1 wants to see or i plan to at least get a new 1 after this grows down for the next show dont worry peeps, n i might try kyle kushmans style of supercropping next time on my super sour og, hopefully turns out as good as my supercropped critical mass :movie

I do both and my last crop I ave was 8 zips per plant in 5gallon buckets of pure coco. I mainly just top my plants but I have ben trying Kyle kushman's style of super cropping and it seems to work good

I pinch all of my plants and supercrop some of the lowers. If anything it strengthens the stems for future weight. Ive noticed visible diff in yield from the same strain with one SC'd and the other not.

Im not a fan of topping, I like budsites so to cut a bunch of them off seems like a waste IMP
, I like pinching. I have some SD that I can make look like a kush from pinching every branch, kind of like kyle kushmans twisting,

i agree with u bro, i like keeping my top bud its always the best n biggest 1 n if u supercrop just 4 or 5 nodes below the top n leave it, it works the same as toping n all lower nodes go crazy, plus u get the main faty top nug still also, i have done this already to all of them this time, and tonight went a step further and kyle kushman style superecroped it up and twist crimped every 3 inchs up every single node on every 1 of my 15 girlys so i am surely going to be in for a heavely crop this harvest, battled spider mites n beat em, which prolonged my veg time by nearly double! but at least i now have monsters that will be huge when finished, plus with this new twist crimp style combined, all i can say is DAMMM! this sure should be a big 1...just another 7 more weeks... :banana1sv6: thanks guys :movie
