Supercropping is a bit more stressful to the plant, yes. As long as the plant's environment is good and there are no other significant stress factors the plant will recover quickly, and yield more. Just don't go around bending every branch on the plant at the same time!

top a few times, let it grow, then supercrop... ull be gold, thats what i do...

"cropping"(LST, super-cropping) is to train and menipulate ur plant... u bend the plant sideways which tricks the plant to grow vertical shoots from the nodes... the more nodes u have above ur bend (menipulation) the more shoots will grow and become tops(which can be topped)... by doing this ur optimizing ur lights, cause they will only penatrate so deep... SCing will allow those lil buds at the bottem to become tops by, keeping ur canopy short and even.. ur also optimizing ur space cuz u pretty much make a blanket of weed, rather then having areas /holes where buds could fit...
supercroppin is so benifical espeacilly if plant numbers or height is an issue..

check this link, it will explain the process and such... read it well if it intrests u, cuz every QnA imaginable is in there... even 1's u didnt think to ask... cheers!
Super Cropping
" top a few times, let it grow, then supercrop... ull be gold, thats what i do..."

this room is 7 trained plants and 10 sog clones that were an experiment that u see in the conner in 2lt bottles.. as u can see theres no holes/gaps where light is lost

Also your plant looks like it did a fair amount of stretching. Try keeping the light closer and the plant won't need to go searching quite as hard. Every little bit helps

Wow, thanks sogbunn!
I'll try that in the next grow
