Also, I plant the seed slightly to the edge of my bag because I know I’ll be bending it over.

This is so I can keep the plant branches within the pit to tie them all down.

@kaptain3d , @VirginiaGrowBoy , @4204life , @OGIncognito , others. Never SCd, but have LSTd every plant. How is SC so much better than LST? Doesnt it do the same thing? More colas, better air flow, etc?

It makes your plant go crazy to heel itself its like they hit over drive when supercroping its one of those thing you have to try it to see what happens happy growing my friend’s

Yes sends signals to the entire plant

Supercrop both.

Just don’t top autos in my opinion.

@VirginiaGrowBoy the plant you started on the side of the pot did you just sc or did you top also

When you supercrop, you break the walls of the cells that carry nutrients in the plant, (sorry, I forgot the name… :man_facepalming: ), this effectively widens the nutrients pathway. :nerd_face:

It’s auto so only supercrop autos

Just defolitated a few day’s after supercropping hopefully i didn’t remove to much n too soon

The timing is good. And that’s a bit much defoliation for my taste, but they will recover nicely, imo.

Don’t forget, the leaves act as solar panels for your plants, the more the merrier. Normally, unless you’re in a “killer setup”, you only take off the leaves that are blocking light to another bud site or that are preventing airflow.
Some people like to defoliate a lot, but then you have to give your plants all of the energy that those leaves were providing… :nerd_face:

It’s a delicate balancing act. But you still did very well.

Imagine you are a plant back thousands of years ago and your top goal is to reproduce.

Imagine again there are 1000 other plants in this field and a severe drought happened.

Only 50 of those plants survived long enough to reproduce (flowering in this case)… Those were the ones that were damaged/smashed or whatever and any plant that survived had that trait magnified in other generations.

Oh my goodness, totally lost my train of thought!

Reminder to self: Don’t post on here when you have a huge buzz. :laughing:

On an auto, can you split the stalk and ice the plant after super cropping, or is that to much damage?

What’s the purpose or reasoning behind this Growmie :love_you_gesture:

Was reading another post and they were splitting the stalk just before harvest as well as using ice right before placing the plant in the dark to increase terpenes. Supercropping is earlier in the growth process than splitting and icing, just wondering, with autos being finicky if that would really screw the plant up for no gain.

Sounded interesting, couldn’t find anything in the search that showed everything, just curious if anyone else has tried.

Always up for an experiment, so going to try it on a Bruce Banner and GSC.

Bro Science in my opinion Growmie :love_you_gesture:
