super crop mess up

bLunteDDDD · Apr 23, 2012

so it was my first time super croping and i was pinching and bending but i accidently snap a branch to where it was only hanging on from like the skin and i put scotch tape on it, do you think if the sticky part of the tape touches the wound will i screw up the healing of the branch? also it seems as if i pinched to hard on the other branches cuz it feels like the branch is way to heavy to be able to go back up towards the light... i will post pics if description aint enough but you guys think im alright?

Use a splint to support it and some rooting gel on it.

well its takes a couple days for your branches to come back up should look like this after a couple days.

There's this new wacked out way of Super Cropping, it's called the 'Squish and Bend' very nicely done with a pair of pliers. Just regular pliers, squish, you can feel how much, and bend, done. No broken anything. Works like a charm. gb,iusetobeamechanic

when you start super croping often, you are bound to break one here and there, we have always used scotch tape without a problem

I use a pair of needle nose pliers to supercrop. Personally I find it to be alot quicker than with my fingers. I crimp over an are 1" long or so: pinch, move up and 90deg., pinch and repeat. Might be excessive but it works for my situation. I've been able to grow short,short busy plants- easy to hide and good yield
