I think I've got this coco thing figured out. I've been having a real struggle with seedlings in coco and a couple unfortunate events.

My plants were looking bad... like really bad thinking about throwing them in the garbage kinda bad. I think I waited too long to start giving them nutrients. Then I closed the door to my cabinet a little too forcefully and the change in air pressure knocked them all over the floor. I didn't check them for a couple days and when I finally checked I was pretty sure they were dead lol. I thought someone was screwing with me... until I figured out how they fell over.

This is what they looked like on the 15th, two days after I found them laying on the floor and repotted them.

And now they're starting to grow again. Strong little buggers! I plan on putting in the irrigation system this weekend.

No, once the plant is a decent size, they don't skip a beat when supercropped. I relentlessly supercropped a sativa I let veg too long during my last grow, I was crushing branches daily for most of flower-some of them have 5-10 "knuckles" where I crushed/bent the branch in different places.
I try to stop doing it after a couple weeks after the buds show up, only do it as a last resort. My ceiling is 8' though, so they can go up to 6+ feet without worry.
Cool, I may try this on a couple shoots this grow to keep things level. I don't plan on using a screen or doing much training this grow, I just want to learn the new medium before I upscale.

i dunno know how to take this.........

could be dog or something else...js

I like scrogs, but I only use them when I run clones of the same strain. Here was my current grow that I just harvested yesterday, this pic was from a week or two back I think? 4 different strains, the front left is the Hawaiian Snow-it was constantly trying to take over the tent, you can see it wrapping it's branches around the sides-that entire canopy is just super cropped branches lying flat, like 2 ft long each. I would just adjust them everyday to make sure the most buds were exposed to the most light, but I really didn't need to tie them down. Multi strain grows are fun without a scrog-you have more options to get an even canopy, though the canopy isn't as nice as a scrog.IMG_20210421_182040974_HDR (1).jpg

does it take long for them to recover from the stress? I've only done bending under the screen, never supercropping.
I have not topped a plant since I learned to super crop...So much faster, easier, and just better all around IMO. Less stress on the plant too I think.

" And this doesn't cause hermis or any other stress problems?"

Not at all.

eh..no....did mine last weekend my friend....and boy did that teach me i'm not 25 anymore...
I hear you...First stirring done...Came in for dabs break!

Oh I took that old mower apart this am...The key was twisted and the flywheel was off just a hair. I thought yep, this is the problem. I popped the flywheel off, straightened it, reassembled, and nada...nothing...still won't fire. and it is getting good spark and gas, so IDK. AND I don't care either, lol!

Proof.....

$300 = 2 years
$150 = 5 years
$50 = 12 years!
