WHO'S HAVING SUCCESS WITH MONSTER CROPPING?

[sunny747]

I monster cropped without knowing it. I took some clones from a flowering pant. They looked absolutely crazy. I couldn't figure it out. Looked like a cat that stuck it's paw in a light socket. I gave them away so not sure how they turned out. I would have liked to have seen them.

Does it increase yield? I doubt it. Could be good for a mother plant or say a plant flowers really well and you want to keep some clones it'd work well in that case. Would it speed up the cropping process? Yea, maybe.

If it increased yield I would do it, but I'm not sure it would. It seems that a plant yields what a plant is going to yield given a certain environment. For instance LST and scrog don't increase total yield. Those techniques more or less pull the growth to the top where the buds get better light. (In my humble opinion) Please don't anyone call me names

No my first instinct is to think your a noob Although who ever the nit wit that came up with the idea this happening from clones taken from flowering plant lol seriously is idiotic ..
i am very curious could you be so kind to show us your monster cropped plants or plant ??? Now don't be shy ..
Cause monster cropping in real world growing times can be completely opposite of using a flowered cut to get the results cause quite frankly,, monster cropping can be just that cropping the hell out of any plant and have exactly same results if not better cause of the stalled progress from flowering cut plain and simple here is my seedling i call monster cropping looking forward to seeing yours View attachment 3501998View attachment 3501999 View attachment 3502000 View attachment 3502002

Thats called SUPER CROPPING. MONSTER cropping is what the OP is talking about. You are wrong. Just admit it.

For instance LST and scrog don't increase total yield.

Yes they do. Thats why people apply those techniques, for that very reason.

 

[ricky1lung]

Yes the do. Thats why people apply those techniques, for that very reason.

I've lst'd a monster crop, with a good veg and training the results are way better yields than an untrained monster crop.

Imo when trained properly it also gives the plant a longer veg time allowing the branches to thicken up all around. Takes a bit of extra veg though, but well worth it.

I like shrubs.

So really whats the difference owe wait a minute I know time right ??? if you think your going to get a monster cropped plant just from taking clones from a 2 - 3 week flowering plant untouched think again not going to happen could that be why they call it monster cropping ??? cause with the more shoots forming then a untouched plant super cropping them will indeed make them what many have posted as monster cropped plant
taking clones from flowering plant will work but once the shitty wrinkled de formed plant kicks back into veg it will start growing again like a normal plant hence little more lateral branching cause that is where the larf buds were on but nothing worth doing and that is from clone ,,
which some how got put into this monster cropping technique usually the monster cropped plant is a plant that has been harvested and some lower larf buds you know like the ones you grow from top to bottom on your plants haha.
Are left to reveg and if you like i will prove it to you I have flowered clones which i have rooting presently will in fact break out of its 2 - 3 week flower mode and into veg and grow normal if left untouched
whats the Difference between monster cropped plant and this ???? lol think about it if MONSTER CROPPING WAS THE BOMB Everyone would be doing it are we ?????
But what it really is ,, Is that the growers clones failed so in hopes in keeping the strain he revegged his harvested plant in hopes to keep the strain alive and get clones
its the same shit as in defoilating a plant in veg strip its leafs off and many claim lateral branching increase tri fold and foliage increases
With closing note With everyone and there dog breeding strains being unstable as it is by doing this, which in reality is a stressed plant either way you look at it will in fact give rise to hermies and nanners so go ahead enjoy em

PS that small plant is that tree now its 11 feet tall and 12 - 13 feet wide topped once and super cropped 2 - 3 times

Monster crop... this plant got pulled back into veg. After a couple weeks in flower-- forgot to clone her before hand....
Anyway, re-veg'd for another month, cloned up & hit the flip 7days ago... again...

Nice looking girl you got there Torch1! Nice to see a plant that has to gone back to veg, get cloned, get flowered again and is still that healthy looking, keep up the good work!

It goes without saying that the MONSTER CROPPED plant would be trained to grow how you want it to. Also, whether it kicks out a shitload a branching has a lot to do with what strain you are using, certain genetics are going to respond well to it, and some won't. Maybe the few you've tried it on were sativa-dominant so you didn't get a lot of extra branching, whereas an indica-dominant would be much more likely to create the desired effect. As for everybody doing monster cropping because its the bomb, people are just now hearing and learning about it in the past few years from what I can tell, though i'm sure some people have been doing it a long time. BOTTOM LINE: Monster cropping is taking clones from a flowering plant, or revegging a flowering plant to get clones off and/or flower it again. If you were actually a skilled grower you would be able to achieve good results with this method. Maybe you're not so skilled...

that tree is Indica dominant cherry pie x pakistani Chitral Kush You do not need to worry about my skills there kiddo i have forgot more then many on here will ever learn

I think timing had a lot to do with it.. I didn't let her go past 3weeks flower the 1st time... let her flip back into veg. Mode (maybe 3weeks?)before taking the cuts...
That plant was trained/supercropped, etc... before she got set to flower the 1st time too... hasn't been touched otherwise, except for the cuts I had taken...
Heres a pic of a clone...
Couple days short of a month..

You got mites ????? so that is a vegged clone from a flowered plant that you revegged ??? here are some clones presently from a 2 week flowered plant should be rooted in mid next week
Would like to ask you so your seeing better growth going this way i mean that clone does not look like anything out of the ordinary..
i used to clone 700 clones a day and have up to ten thousand + at once with that said i played around with nodes and cutting points as to where to take clones
Here is some rooted clones transplanted and about 10 days old from visible roots clones taken from a vegged plant but look at the branching this is untouched clones from a vegged plant And also a harvested plant and on its re veg journey Hard mode LST lol
And finally a a bigger plant lower shot picture all this plants except the flowered Re Veg one is from natural vegged clones its amazing really now comparing it to the longer veg times needed to do this monster cropping Personally it should be left for the archives monster cropping is like running magnetic ballasts 30 years from now

 

[Darth Vapour]

owe i forgot to add the under shot from a normal clone if i want to grow Xmass tree clones they look like this haha

Lol.. I'm sure I got more than mites...
Better growth? Monster cropping?-- not my preference for growing, just something that happened...

I'm wondering, maybe you don't get the crazy branching effect when the clones are taken from a plant that is currently in veg. example, flowering plant flipped back to veg, waited 3 weeks then took cuts. As opposed to taking the clones from the plant when it is in full flower mode during week 2 then the clone has to root and start vegging so it shocks it into crazy branch mode? I can hardly wait 10-12 more days and then I'll take cuts from all my flowering plants and see if they get branchy

My notion was to get a clone that would'nt monster up or have so much of an inclination to do so...

the clones i have, have been cleaned up a lil...

I didn't come up with the terms/techniques or definitions dude. They are what they are. But they are two different things.

My new policy.
It's 100% possible to take clones from a flowering plant. But it takes a little longer for the clones to do their thing. So unless you have a pretty specific reason to want crazy branching, Monster Cropping is not really something you should try to do. Take cuttings from healthy, vegging plants. They will root and "grow right" faster. But if you need more, don't hesitate to grab some clones from a flowering plant.

The one benefit i'm hoping to get from monster cropping is being able to take cuts 2-3 weeks into flower and they should be rooted and vegging by the time i harvest my crop and go right into the big room. Then i no longer need to spend time taking care of mother plants in a separate room, just take cuts at the same time every round. We'll see how it works out though, this will be my first time doing so.
