Sorry if this has been asked already, but how long do you normally veg the plants before you SC them? I think you do it a week or two before flower, so how long before that.
depends on u... the more nodes u get above ur bend, the more tops will shoot... if u want max value, grow as high as u can go wide.... bend it down 90degrees(whoever knows the degree sign on ur key board plz tell)... so if ur room is 5x5 grow it high enuff that when u bend the branches down it all gets light.. plant size depends on bend areas.... u wanna open ur plant up so it all see sun regardless of its size really

Excellent Explanation! I thought I would show an example. She was climbing close to 3 Ft when I bent her down. Now she spans over 4 ft, and she will bud all the way down. This is one of the best ways to maximize yeild, and take advantage of lower Legal Medical plant limits!



And Thanks Blue Moonshine1, She was all that and more! MK Ultra, My personal favorite!

Just read through this thread, makes me wish I did it to all my ladies this season! Well they are all outside and about 6 weeks into flowering. Most of them look great but there is one that is lagging behind. I figured that even if I kept it alive as long as possible it still won't produce as much as the others who are more mature. So here's the deal, this things about six feet tall and I'ma super crop it tomorrow. Mostly for an experiment, the experience and a small part of me hopes it will help and let some of those smaller buddlets see the sun. I will take some before and after pics, not really worried about it turning hermie. Is this the latest someone has tried to super crop?

LoL, I mean is there really anything to lose here? I don't want underdeveloped bud, the thing is lacking tops anyways and some of the smaller buds would have a few weeks to expand UP I am going for it. Worst case is it doesn't do squat :p

i bet this would work for any grow set up with space restrictions or not. i've noticed a suggnifficant increase in bud size. so i see no real problem:mrgreen:

i agree but if ur set up is a true SOG, its not gonna cut it... some ppl want shit fast and consistent... SCing takes more veg time and a lil harder to plan a perpetuate due to size, as SOG u know how many is gonna fit in ur area and how long its gonna take to fill it bi-weekly... thats what i meant by set up and such.. i guess i shoulda said style insteada set up
