Supercropping a preflowering in veg

Got this Bubba Kush and 3 others that are showing pretty crazy pre-flowering at the end of week 5. It was getting out of control from my others, and I have never tried Super Croping, but I guess I did. Within 4 hours, they were curled back up at the lights (huge thanks to Stephen at HLG, these lights are the bomb). So,.. How do you think these will turn out? im about 7-10 more days to flip.IMG_3694.JPGView attachment 4219440

Keep bending them. Bend the hell out if them training them in a pattern to form a level canopy. It won't be like a SCROG but it will beat an untrained plant for yield. Did you top it?

I'll have to look back on my journal, but I believe I did top this one once about 2 weeks ago. Should I let It recover a bit before rebend it?, or did you mean while bending new ones? I got these seeds from CropKings, and this Bubba looks nothing like the others. It looks more Sativa dominant. Who knows what you get when ordering seeds online.

I've been doing various methods to try and keep my canopy even, but some strains are going crazy, while others are lagging behind. I've had some Cal/Mag deficiency amongst a few, and that has slowed them down a bit, but some doses of Epsom Salt has done wonders. Im using Botanicare Veg at half strength. PH my well water down to 6.5 in a 55 gallon tank that recirculates as I water, growing in BM7/7gallon pots. Temps are steady at 78-79 RH at 49-55. 1300 CFM intake and exhaust, no CO2 (feel it would be a waste with that much turnover). Other than that, things are going good with this 92 plant count. I was really surprised at the quick recovery from the super cropping.
