Supercropping and Canopy Control

bassman999 · Oct 5, 2012

Heres something to wake the thread up.
I bought 10 Tahoe Og clones and put them straight into flower. They were 15-20 inches tall each, and a lil stretchy for my tent.

Before 7 days ago, and today after super cropping. I know pics suck, I need a camera that will compensate for hps.

What's up Bass, I just checked in from a hiatus, those pics are sweet! It looks like you'll be in for a treat once those take off in your containers. Looks like a nice start to a canopy. Gonna go poke around the 600 for the first time in a long time! I hope all is well with you bass.

I am good. I just moved and had troubles with my plants after moving and tossed em all outside. I got new clones and they were lanky and needed to be taught a lesson lol. I just got a new variety of clones today also....
Gods Gift
Purple AK
Cindy99 (Pineapple pheno)
7070 Headband
Purple Kush

I hope tghese all tirn out to be the real deal, but have learned from past experience not to expect too much....

Overall I have high hopes though.

day 22 of 12/12 lads the 6 of them

bassman999 · Oct 13, 2012

all my supercropped branches are straightening out and still getting too tall, this batch isnt gonna work out well I can see losing control really soon. These bitches are just way too stretchy!

bassman999 · Oct 13, 2012

budolskie how does this work out for ya? I mean leaving the sucker branches on there?
I think that could be good, like 3-4 mains, and then the shoots firing straight up from the horizontal branches!

There is 1 I have cut all branches off except main 4 I will get better pics one I have super cropd aswell and would the yield be much extra cutting them off and letting main 4 grow bigger or just letting them all grow with a bit training also I have trimmed few little shit bits off along the way

Love it! Pics 9 thru 11 look very similar to the top of my Bubba outdoor.

bassman999 · Oct 15, 2012

I love all the different techniques in action!
I think the 4 main colas is my favorite

ThegrowerMOJO · Oct 15, 2012

budolskie · Oct 15, 2012

i can't wait, training is the way forward only talks plants I been happy with was my rhino 2nd time growing

bassman999 · Oct 16, 2012

Ill have to take some more pics. I dont know how long Tahoe OG will grow in flower, but I havent supercropped her well, and several of the branches managed to get straight again somehow and the rest just curved back up.

fumble · Oct 16, 2012

Hey bassman, I have some cool little bendy things that will help keep them in place for you. Let me know and I will get them to you.

Shwagbag · Oct 16, 2012

Glad to see some action in this thread peeps!

Just keep cranking on them in the same spot bass, they'll develop a knot after a while at which point you can literally bend them 180 degrees without hurting them. Once you crop them in a spot once, stay on that spot a cpl times per week until it becomes a permanent bend in the stem. Once the plant grows past that spot you can continue to move up the stem and keep cropping the same way. I will try to take some pics later if I have time. My guy is trimming down a 12 head AK 47 that should put plenty of people to sleep when she's cured lol.

Good day croppers!

bassman999 · Oct 16, 2012

They kinda healed after pointing back up. They feel like they will break if I try the same spot again.
pic 1 is of the nine Tahoes
pic 2 is of a knuckle that went back to straight.
last pic is my clones
