Monster cropping

it does work, it does take a lot of patience, I personally prefer to reveg / clone / train .... you can only grow so many buds of high quality indoor with monster cropping and they tend to grow a little too bushy imo

Good job on not giving up on it.
Like Green Santa said. It takes patience.
I did the same with my AK, took about 3 weeks to show any veg sign.
She's going on 41/2 weeks since she rooted. First grew some crazy looking leafs now there starting to come out normal.

Keep it going.

I've got some thunderstruck cuttings in my cloner that were taken about 3 weeks into flower, they have been in the cloner for a month now and still no roots but they aren't dead either so just going to keep it going and see what happens. Successfully monster cropped a gold leaf that is now 5 weeks into flower. Crazy bushy, but when I switched to 12/12 it stopped growing immediately so is very short but has a ton of cola's. If these clones don't root I'm going to try to reveg after I harvest the flowers in two weeks instead of chopping down, really don't want to lose the Thunderstruck line to make CBD caps with, the health benefits are impossible to ignore.

Hey ChronicMonster. Thanks for starting this thread, i have been looking at Monster cropping for a while. I have actually had to do a monster crop session due to the fact all my plants outside flowered ( I live in south africa and our spring came late very very late. ) so now im sitting with Training Day Lemon Skunk Buddah Cheese all about 3 to 4 weeks into flower ( they where into flower ) taken a month to get them to revert back to veg. I have now got some small stems coming out of all the buds. Im gonna post some pics and hopefully this thread can stay around for a while to help those also wanting to monster crop. I have never tried this, always FIM or Snapped or lollied LST. so im excited, its all this waiting thats driving me mad hahaha. took 6 clones from the flowering buddah and they all rooted but seem to have just stopped doing anything lol so ill just wait and see.

How's it's going RIU guys.
Just doing a little update on my AK the showed a little over 2 months ago. she's doing great. as soon as the real leaves started to show I starting to feed her some elite gardens nutrients. (I got a free sample pack from local hydro store) anyways she's is looking better then ever. Nice thick stems, nodes everywhere lol, big fat water leafs too. didn't think they would get that big so soon. she's in a 3 gal pot with canna coco.

So at this point I'm deciding to either transplant her one more time into a 10 gal or 15??
I will be throwing her into a 4x4x7 tent by her self so just trying to get the most oUT of this beast lol

How long do you plan on vegging before you flip?

I'm not sure yet. but I'll tell you this, the mother I took her from was probably that size. when she was done flowering lol. (Had a fungus nat problem so most of her veg time was spent fighting those off.) so since she's already the same size if not a little bigger then her flowering mother. I'm thinking another month just to see what she can do.

If it was myself I would transfer into a five gallon for a month then go to the final 15 gallon pot she would do amazing and you wouldn't get as much root dispersion that way. Going from a 3 gallon to a 15 would be a big jump.
