super croping help!!!!!!!!!!!!

i am 4 weeks in to bloom when is the ideal time to super croping my plants are healthy and getting tall i topped 1 time and have 2 very long steams on each plant when do you start super croping i am new to super croping and could use

my friends on this forum to help me out thanks bros and galls

I think 4 weeks into bloom is a little too late to supercrop. I try to stop bending them before starting flower. I have been tying my tall ones down in flower if they get too tall.

it can be done, i just did supercropping for the 1st time in my current grow
was well into flower
if the stem is too stiff, that you don't want to bend, it will break
but as some others told me, they bend their females as they need to, they can take quite a bit of punishment(usually, there are always exceptions)

Never done it during flower..

so should i not super crop

Go ahead and super crop. Fuck it. Live and learn, right? So you snap your girls in half on your first try.

fuck super cropping, do you break your wifes legs and say cook better? no, so why does this apply to weed???

Ive supercropped in flowering no problem. Ive broken stems and then i tape them...one welted up to a golfball sized growth just went on growin horizontal then vertical.

mostly done in VEG using the oh fuck i missed teqnique and 1 time crop does not make 2 heads in this case it makes 4 colas after have done it for years now and love all lower foilage/arms should be gone they steal all nuts from top along with a Supper crop had up to 20+ colas.

I wouldn't do it past week 1 of flower.

Nooooo way don't super crop in flower mate. I all ways crop .. you need to do it in veg and have a good week and a half to recover .. it won't help that late into flower it will cause loads of problems ..

And your not really looking to (snap) the plant in my opinion you just want to squash the stem with your fingers you will no wen its done, it will wilt over.. or a bit of water residue will be visable.

i vegged longer than usual and ended up with a height problem. 8 days into flower, i super cropped them to even out the canopy. when a few of the buds got too tall at about 3 weeks into flower, i pinched them again. i have marked those tops and will see how their development is compared to other buds on the same plants that were not cropped a second time.

i pinched some branches so much that they were almost pointed to the floor. the bend was so tight, i figured i'd lose all that bud but they are doing fine. except for the nasty looking bend, you wouldn't know anything had happened.
