Supercropping in flowering??? 5 feet tall..smh (PICS)

First of all yeah i know

Second of all can i supercrop my plant while in flowering? i started 12/12 12:03am sep 6th

Can i super crop just the top? i have one main stalk due to not topping ( yes i know ) how will it affect the plant?


Any other suggestions on getting the height down if at all possible lol.

You have no space for anything to grow into. Your canopy is full and you will run out of height. The plant will probably stretch 1.5x or 2x.

since you just started flowering I would put it back into veg, and then cut the main top way down so that its lower than the other tops. Keep it in veg for 7 days under 24/0, to get the other tops going. Then you can LST or supercrop as needed.

YES.. The answer is YES you can. I just did it to an auto i am running for the solo cup contest. As long as the stem doesn't snap the bud will continue to grow and swell. just needs to be able to get nutes to the tip(non split open stem)


Good luck. And do it from the begining next time. i have 60+ tops on my blue dream and she'll be going into flower at the end of the month.

In a few days of coaxing you could have that top pulled to the ground if you wanted. Wont hurt a thing. You could lower your lights and you would get rabid bud growth from the sides. She will break if you force her at once, so do it in 'spurts' she'll give..

Just one idea to pile on the others.

THANK U i will doing this first thing tomorrow morning

the backside split a little, LITTLE i put tape on it and ill take it off once it heals maybe a week, what do you guys think? am i ok?

I have done surgery, with masking tape, successfully, so you should
be OK with just a split.

As to your original question, I have found that some breeds really stall
when their main tops are super-cropped. It is like the reins are not passed
to lower action, but the main tops are still badly affected.

Other breeds seem to love it, even in flowering.

Good luck,

Ya, you may of retarded it by a week, but you'll catch up and be all the better for it at harvest now you have room to work with. L9ng as you didn't go snapping her off, you 'should' be fine..

See I told you. Just cut the top down. and veg it for another week. geez

That looks like a lot of plant and not a lot of light! They also look like 6500k and in flower you want mostly 2700.

You are going to have many areas in all the dense foliage getting minimal light and thus minimal yield.

I would thin out, remove a plant, add more lights, etc.

theres only one plant there.....laughs to self. and they are 2700 yep i know cuz i changed them out 3 times because i kept mixing up my bulbs. im at a loss for more bulbs unfortunately. I cant add more in the house i live in due to old wiring. wouldnt have started had i know that oh well im working with what i got and dont take that as me being cocky or nothing i just dont have the option haha i definetly have alot of things i would do differently which i am in my grow box.
